I was just wondering what everyone wears to weld in. do you prefer welding jackets or those have shirt sleeves with a apron attached to the bottom of it or even the good ol' wrangler shirts. Just another topic to see what everyone uses. also very bored at the moment lol.

Depends on the job. Just use common sence. After a couple of hot ones you'll know what to wear.

wear during welding
If cool I always use the leather jacket and blue jeans... If hot, flannel shirt instead...
no welding boots or welding socks. do use cotton socks. umm I got the scars on my feet to show I don't use boots.

Cotton or other non-synthetic fibers (synthetics melt and catch fire like napalm).
