Men's Twill Action Back Coverall - Oversized, No-Scratch Finish

Our review of the Red Kap men's twill action back coverall finds it best suited for mechanics, technicians and shop workers who need a roomy, durable coverall that protects painted surfaces. The single biggest reason to buy is the ZeroSkratch design with covered zippers and button closures, which helps avoid accidental scratches while you work; combined with an oversized cut and action-back pleats it delivers comfortable range of motion for bending, crawling and reaching.

Key Features

• ZeroSkratch protection: Covered zippers and no-scratch button closures keep paint and finished surfaces safe when working near vehicles or equipment.
• Oversized fit: The roomy cut is designed to be worn over clothes, providing ample space to layer and move without restriction.
• Action-back pleats: Pleats across the back add extra flexibility and freedom of movement for lifting and reaching tasks.
• Side vents: Strategically placed vents allow quick access to pants pockets or a tool belt and improve mobility while wearing the coverall.
• Chest pockets: Dual chest pockets keep small tools and essentials close at hand for convenient access on the job.

Who It's For

The coverall is well suited to men working in automotive, maintenance and industrial settings who need protective outerwear that will not mar painted surfaces and that allows a full range of motion. Its oversized sizing works for workers who prefer to wear layers underneath or need looser leg room for kneeling and crawling.

Look elsewhere if you need a tailored, slim fit or if you prefer a short-torso cut; customers reported mixed sizing where some found the upper body a bit short while leg length can run long. Also confirm your coverall size by measuring chest and waist and choosing the larger number from the size chart rather than relying on pant size.
