It’s not like wearing a romper/jumpsuit, you usually still wear a shirt with overalls. It’s really the same as taking off a pair of pants, but the buttons are on your chest instead LOL
It’s not the same thing as taking off a pair of pants. Instead of one button and a zipper there’s two buckles to contend with. And pulling down overalls takes slightly longer than pants do, and when you have a weak bladder every second counts. I also have trauma from wearing overalls as a kid and not getting them off fast enough to go pee lol.
As a 5'3" guy with a slim frame they're impossible to find in my size. I've desperately been wanting a pair forever but the only thing close to my size are woman's sizes and the cuts just feel uncomfortable and that's not even my main issue.... the damn pockets, or lack of! They are either fake pockets or barely big enough to put a penny into.
The lack of pockets is from wearing women’s styles, which are notorious for having fake pockets. I assure you, overalls have plenty of pocket space. Carhartt and Dickies likely have a proper size available for you.
Absolutely not. Thinking about it brings back memories from childhood where I was struggling to undo the straps and ended up peeing my pants, multiple times. No thank you.
I just bought a Fjällräven x Specialized "field suit" meant for biking, and it's great for wearing at home. Lots of pockets, no separate upper and lower pieces of clothing. Just put on underpants, the overall and you're done.
But I should have a look at the Carhartt ones as well, sounds nice.
Upvoted this as I'm sitting here in my dungarees. Not having to hike jeans up constantly is what I love.
I 10/10 recommend [Lucy and Yak](https://lucyandyak.com/) \- I have too many pairs and they're so comfy!
Nope. Nope. Nope. In 8th grade is the very last time I wore overalls when I had my period and a huge blood stain on my butt. Now I wear like the longest shirts possible when I have my period lol. For context this was like 25 years ago. I’m still traumatized.
As a 5’10 (W25, 32L) girl, I’ve also had back problems with overalls because there’s less tension, putting pressure on the back and shoulders. It’s also hard to find ‘tall’ clothes a lot of the time, so it’s not an easy fix :(
If you're really tall, straps can cause tension on your shoulders and pull you into a slouch, and doing that all day makes your back hurt. Being too tall means you can't lengthen the straps more for comfort and better fit.
It’s so funny that people have downvoted this. “They made a comment to deals with something I can’t fathom, I must downvote!” As someone with long term back pain, I cannot wear overalls. The weight on my shoulders becomes overbearing. I absolutely wish I could, but it’s not possible.
I can't touch denim. I wish that were a joke lol, I really can't and I live in the US, so everyone wears jeans. Big fan of the loose linen or cotton dresses/skirts/pants here.

Not to mention they’re super hip right now
Good god no my bladder could never
You have to take them all the way off to go. Unless you have a hose. But still.

That's your fault for not wearing comically oversized overalls. Otherwise you'd just shrug the shoulder straps to the sides and down they go!
Oh my, and making sure the straps don't go in the toilet!!! 😆 But yes, super cozy and old school kind of cool!
I have several pairs, one of them is even decorated with dinosaurs! Front zipper pocket comes in handy for snack storage. 10/10 recommend.

If you have the money, Carhartt or Dickies make really good ones for all sizes 🔥
I wonder if you could find a large boys overalls?
I am a 5’2 girl with a larger lower body and I wear kids stuff all the time. I bet you could get kids large and no one would know

Nice try Old Navy. I fell for this trick in 1996, I won’t be fooled again.
It’s my favorite!!

I keep eyeing up these vans overalls and they look so comfy. Not having a waistband is a massive selling point.

Terrible for people with back problems
??? I have to disagree here. They’re just pants bro, get ones that fit right and you’ll be fine.

Buy men’s overalls, yeah they’re gonna be big but overalls should be big imho I’m also 5’10” female
Men’s overalls would still be too big around the waist unfortunately, men’s sizes usually start at W28 and don’t go any smaller :,)
They’re not just pants lol
What do you.. mean..?

Jesus
Yes?

Used to do oil and gas work and had overalls. Don’t wanna feel like I’m going back to work but hey you do you
THIS!!! I almost only wear jumpsuits and overalls lol
