Although I must admit these accessories look very elegant in Havana, it’s the only other color I would everconsider wearing as a rig because it still looks very masculine.

I have black, brown and awful scratched and scuffed but serviceable. They all keep my gun off the ground so I am easily pleased and who cares about fashion in sweat pants or bib overalls.

How do you wear a holster with bib overalls? Pics, please...

I'm a HUGE fan of OshKosh and Dickies denim bibs whn I'm working in my woodshop or letterpress studio, but I can't seem to figure out a way to wear a sidearm that is practical and doesn't look just flat-out-stupid...

Usually, I just tuck my .45 in a drawer in the workbench, or carry my Walther in a pocket holster...

When you wear Overalls you can wear a belt holster under the Overalls. It looks strange to wear a belt over overalls.
Wear em about 1-2 sizes too large and leave the top side button un-fastened.
(I've got pants in sizes 38-44 due to weight gain & loss, so I could do it.)
OR...
Drop a Glock 26 or 27 in your ft. pocket in a pocket holster. A S&W 642 or 640 works well also.

(Open Carry looks strange in Overalls, unless you have something reasonably small sticking out of the bib.)

I go in and out of stores all the time with the grips of my 640 above the bib. I've done it enough, I forget it's there. It's never been a big thing, and I see no reason to draw attention to a visible pistol.
