Outdoor Workwear
Posted: Fri Aug 16, 2024 2:26 pm
As a tough, rugged, outdoors man, I wear tough rugged work wear.
I used to buy a lot of Jeep clothing - there clothing, unlike their vehicles, was good quality & well-priced.
But they started getting pricey, so I changed to Jonsson Clothing.
Initially Jonsson Workwear wasn't bad - 100% cotton is cool & the quality was good.
But they too stated getting pricey.
The quality of the clothing also seems to be getting worse.
Or maybe I'm just getting rougher - I wear the shirts out from the inside.
Then I bought a pair of their shoes. A Jonsson Workwear All Terrrain shoe.
What a load of crap.
The laces stripped within a month.
I went in & asked them for new laces & they said "We can SELL you new laces!".
I said OK what length are they. The lady insisted I take the 110cm lace as the 125mm would be too long.
The OEM lace was actually 150cm - so clearly the staff are all idiots.
Then the one shoe split/tore within 3 months.
Knowing that:
1. Their staff are all idiots.
2. They don't offer back up.
I went in & showed them the shoe & said the shoe is less than 3 months old.
I got a blank stare (because their staff are all idiots).
So I asked if they could repair it.
She turned to someone & shouted "Do we repair shoes".
The reply "No!" was shouted back across the store.
So I walked out.
I then mentioned this story on the Jonsson Workwear FB page - no response.
Awhile later some guy was complaining about the quality of the foot ware & I replied repeting my story.
Jonsson Workwear messaged me asking for my contact details.
I supplied them.
They said they get in touch, but being idiots, they havent bothered.
Anyhoo, since I'll no longer be buying of Jonsson Tearwear ever again, I'm looking for a new workwear supplier.
Any suggestions, I've heard of Teesav.
Someone said Boerbul is good stuff - they seem to sell a lot of Camo & only a Bonehead wears camo.
They seem more expensive than Jonsson, though.
