North Safety Shop Coat

Army Surplus Shop Coat

This is a full-length shop coat made by North Safety and supplied through US Army stock. A shop coat is an overcoat-style work layer worn over regular clothes to keep grease, dust, paint and solvents off them. It suits mechanics, armorers, reloaders, woodworkers and anyone who spends time at a bench and wants their clothes to stay clean.

Features

• Dark Navy Fabric — The deep navy color hides oil, grime and shop dust better than a white or light coat.
• Metal Snap Front — Five metal snaps close the coat quickly and come open fast if it catches on something.
• Notched Lapel Collar — A tailored collar with lapels lies flat and gives the coat a neat, uniform look.
• Chest Patch Pocket — A pocket on the left chest holds pens, a marker or a tire gauge within easy reach.
• Two Lower Patch Pockets — Large hip-level pockets take rags, gloves, small tools and parts.
• Full-Length Cut — The coat reaches past the hips to protect trousers as well as shirts at the bench.
• Long Sleeves — Full sleeves cover the arms when you reach into an engine bay or across a workbench.
• North Safety Label — The maker's NORTH tag is sewn above the chest pocket, as supplied.

Issued Workwear

North Safety is an established maker of protective clothing, and this coat came into US Army inventory as working garb for shops and maintenance areas. It is original government stock, not a commercial lookalike, which appeals to buyers who want authentic surplus for daily use, collecting or period displays. The simple patch-pocket layout and snap front are the same practical design used across military and industrial workshops.
