" ...  Love the fit of this apron!  ...  "
comment
" ...  It is easy to adjust and size to fit. ... The only thing I would like to see is a holder for a tape measure, like on a tool belt. ... Although it has 2 loops for hammers which you can clip a tape measure to, often times the clips are too tight to make this convenient option. ... A dedicated tape measure holder on one side or the other or in the front would make this apron even better for woodworkers or carpenters.  ...  "
