270308004 - Miller Electric Olive Drab Washed Cotton Duck Chore Jacket - XL

Heavy-Duty Industrial Workwear

The Miller Electric Washed Chore Jacket in Olive Duck (SKU: 270308004) is a premium garment designed for professionals who demand durability without sacrificing comfort. Engineered from heavy-weight 12-ounce cotton duck canvas, this jacket provides a robust barrier against abrasion, dirt, and light workshop debris. Unlike traditional stiff canvas workwear, this model undergoes a specialized washing process during manufacturing, resulting in a fabric that is pliable and comfortable from the very first wear. The XL sizing is tailored to accommodate the active movement required in welding, fabrication, and general maintenance tasks, allowing sufficient room for layering thermal garments underneath during colder months.

Functionality is at the core of the design. The jacket features a classic four-pocket layout, providing ample storage for soapstone, markers, small tools, and personal items. The chest pockets are easily accessible, while the deep lower pockets offer a resting place for hands or larger hardware. Durability is enhanced through the use of metal rivets at high-stress points, ensuring the garment withstands the rigors of daily industrial use. The button-front closure is robust and easy to manipulate even while wearing work gloves. Additionally, the collar is finished with soft corduroy, a thoughtful detail that prevents irritation against the neck during prolonged periods of wear. Whether used for light welding prep, grinding, or general facility maintenance, this Miller chore jacket stands as a testament to quality industrial apparel.

Technical Specifications

The choice of 100% cotton duck is deliberate; natural fibers like cotton offer inherent resistance to melting when exposed to incidental heat, unlike synthetic blends which can fuse to the skin. While not a substitute for full leather PPE in heavy overhead welding, the tight weave of the duck cloth provides excellent protection against sparks and spatter in low-amperage or bench work scenarios. The olive drab color hides grease and grime effectively, maintaining a professional appearance longer between washes. This jacket represents the intersection of Miller Electric's commitment to welder safety and practical, everyday utility.
