I, too, love round house. One thing I do is this. I sew a small pocket below the hammer loop on the left leg I carry my spare keys on a carabiner in this pocket
Nice enhancement!
I'm a big fan of Round House overalls as well. The first pair I ordered were NOT made in the USA, contrary to all the advertising I had seen, including the ad on Cavender's where I purchased them. Then I found the official website, and they properly differentiate the countries of origin. Much to my dismay, the USA-made versions are not made of the heavier, almost self-edge style denim. Regardless, I'm proud to be able to support the company that still employs US citizens. 🇺🇸
Proud owner of round house bibs here! I wear them all the time and love the comfort
I’m a diehard Roadhouse overall wear myself. Love the channel, been watching you a long time. Keep up the great work and God bless you and your family.
I’ve been watching your channel for a long time, always excellent informative content with a lot of humor, just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate and enjoy and learn from your channel. God Bless you and yours and keep ‘em coming Pa-Mac
Thank you for watchin', Richard. I appreciate your kind words
Lifelong daily wearer of bib overalls in my late 60's now. Through the years it's been Oshkosh and Big Smith until Oshkosh decided to cater to the high dollar crowd and Big Smith decided to go with the LARGER crowd and squeeze out us 40 in waist little fellas. Dickies has been my brand for the past 5-6 years I'll have to check into these Round House overalls and see what they're about. Thanks for the video 👍
I too am a Roundhouse fan. Best fitting brand I've found.
Haven’t seen Round House in stores near me. I love my Liberty Overall.
Good video ! I too own Round House overalls. I have two pair of denim, a black duck pair, a brown pair, and a pair of hickory strip ones. They are all USA made of all USA material including zipper and buttons. I don't to look any further for any other brands. I also have two pairs of their carpenter jeans. Great quality. Thanks again for this video my friend.
PA MAC GOT A SPONSOR!! CONGRATS MAN!
Never heard of this company and I love supporting USA companies. Never worn overalls, but I may just try some on and see how they feel after seeing this video
First, thank you so much for your videos. I really enjoy them! I live in rural Northern California and wear overalls almost daily. My favorites are my Keys brand. I like the pocket layout on the bib.
Howdy Pa- yep, I’m a Roundhouse man. Been wearing them for years and get them from the factory nowadays. Take care and God bless
Paul Mack your like a school teacher. thank you
When you're used to overalls, but its hot in the summer, we just cut the legs off an old pair and you've still got overalls in a cut-off jean style. Much cooler when it's hot.
That's actually my swimwear for the river.
Forget your overall recommendations! I want a signed pair of an actual Pa Mac worn set!! 😂We will stick em behind some plexiglass as a keepsake!! 😂
That's quite the honor. Would you prefer 'em washed first?
By the way, keep up the great work on your channel and videos. May God bless yall.
@@farmhandscompanion Wow that is quite an honor sir!!! You are a huge family hit here and an inspiration so thank you. As for the overalls, we would like them so worn in that they stand up on their own and can’t be folded into a conventional box. 😂
I'm a huge fan of roundhouse lowback overalls myself.
Hi Pa Mac, Hello from a french (of all places) homesteader, wearing Roundhouse overalls day in day out. Tried Dickies and Big Smith, not bad either, but definitely sold on the Roundhouse, when I manage to get them over the pond...
Thanks for your channel, I'm a fan (and use many tips from you in running the homestead, believe it or not... the chicken catcher was a revelation :)

Thank you so much for watchin', Gilles!
Roundhouse is outstanding…….love my bibs 👍
Ive been wantin to try out some overalls. Gettin tired of wearin belts with jeans. Theres just no way to make em comfortable when youre a bigger guy. Ill give roundhouses website a look see. Thanks,and keep em comin.
I order mine online! Been wearing them for years and the best quality.
Thanks for sharing the great information with everyone. Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.
Thanks, you too, Fred
Been wearing overalls for a long time if you ever thought you would like a pair you should try them. I believe you’ll love them. I always know what I’m getting for Christmas 😁
Been wearing bibs most all of my life as well.. I too prefer the old school button fly
Thanks I wear them and will be trying round house out for sure
I love roundhouse living down the river in Arkansas and getting them for reasonable prices they have two other big pluses USA cotton and USA made
Came here from Cedar Hills Homestead. New sub from her accolades about you.
Great episode!
thank you, Douglas
Big Smith fan here, but I will try the Roundhouse.
My husband used to wear Big Smith until they went over seas. He tried other brands and found one made in Missouri. They are JD's. They are made of the Big Smith patterns. They can be found at Blossers Country Store in Halfway Missouri. Might can Google them. They may have a website. Not real sure. We usually drive almost 200 miles to get his. Good people.
New to your channel me and my son. Our first video is watching you do a handle on a broad axe and I like the Walmart brand overalls myself
Welcome to the channel, and thanks to both of you for watchin'!
Excellent info as always my friend. I had a pair and liked them. Will Check out there website.
Could you do something on storing root veges for us guys in the south? Also, curing or salt meat preserving. You are the man and God Bless you and yours!
Those things are on the list, Mark
I'd be super excited and interested to see those episodes too!

I love my Key brand overalls. Same brand my grandpa wore. Where i live in TN, key and liberty seem to be the 2 most popular brands. Personally, i dislike the chest pocket arrangement on liberty.
Keys are nice. They would probably be my second choice
They also sell them at Atwoods farm and ranch Boot Barn and Cavender's also carry them I love my roundhouse overalls.
I wear jeans and a cheap t shirt for my custodial job. Will these overalls wear better than Wrangler Riggs? Eventually hoping to “graduate” to a more vintage look to suite my “old soul”character a bit more.
Since I'm not familiar with Wrangler Riggs, I don't know how the "wear" would compare...but the advantage of carrying small tools with you would be the biggest benefit. PLUS...you won't get a more vintage look than a good, faded pair of Roundhouse overalls!
Gary, great meeting you. You and I are close to the same build. What size overalls do you have? Bret, Texas.
Yall, too! I'm a 38w and 36l
Ud es un tesoro de conocimientos en el campo de la autosuficiencia, y por tanto de una vida más saludable, así como de la preservación del planeta frente a tantas herramientas eléctricas perfectamente prescindibles en muchos casos.

Many of your videos, you seem to be working very hard in the hot sun, with your jean overalls. Now, I don't have denim overalls but I have tried working in the garden in my denim jeans, and my legs just COOK and sweat nonstop! Have you just "adapted" to the climate or is there a special kind of undershirt you wear that breathes good? Also, do those overalls breath well?
Hey Cameron, I'll go into more detail at some point down the road, but to hit the highlights in answering your question...
-despite what things look like on the show, I TRY not to work in the hot, middle of the day sun, but to save those chores for morning (or maybe evening)
-no special type of shirt, just cotton long sleeve (hat and long sleeve to protect skin from direct contact from sun)
-grown men never used to show their bare legs in public (ie, shorts), and I'm of that opinion still; nobody really wants to see that, trust me
-(this may not be a pleasant thought but...) sweat is not a byproduct of difficult work in hot conditions, but a comfort to difficult work in hot conditions; it has a "cooling" effect when your shirt and clothes get wet and you keep movin' (You kinda have to recondition your thinkin' about that fact)
-yes, I have a adapted to the climate; I prefer our humid and hot summers. It's also kind of fun knowin' nobody's gonna bother you out there because they think it's too blame hot
Talk at us about the pocket knife you carry in those overalls
I try to keep it sharp.
Most of the time.
Very interesting!
Does roundhouse make both low back and high back overalls?
Yes
One difference between Roundhouse and Liberty I found is that hay brushed off my Roundhouse bibs much easier than the Liberty’s.
Very interestin' observation
@@farmhandscompanion I chalked it up to either the thicker denim or the type of denim. My Liberty bibs seemed to be harder to get the hay off after filling hay bags. Interesting for sure.
I've been wearing bib overalls for years. I like Round House but wish they made a pair with a large bib pocket rather than the 2 smaller pockets. I carry my wallet, cell phone and pocket watch all in my bib pocket and the larger pocket like Pointer Brand had works much better for me. It's hard for me to get my wallet out of the smaller pockets. Also I like a closed top pocket either with a zipper or snap flap. Other than this, Round House are very well made and look good. I prefer the button fly also. I'm like you Pa when I buy overalls I prefer the rigid denim dark blue traditional overalls rather than stone washed. What used to be really popular here in North Carolina was the low or suspender back overalls. Round House made a low back model as well as L.C. King.
Thanks for commentin', Mark
Check out the RoundHouse #980 Utility with Zipper - it's caught my eye as being more alike some older Key bibs that have zipper and larger top.
Hickory striped Key overalls are what ALL the dairy farmers used to wear around here (Northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin). Now the only people I see wearing them are fitters at cow shows. The quality doesn't seem to be what it used to on them.
And Roundhouse makes 'em as well
Preciate ya!
you too, subdrvr
What brand of work shirt is that you were wearing for this video?
What brand of lace up boots do you wear? I've seen your videos and you wear a pair of brown lace up work boots.
Georgia boots, the tall logging ones (usually with steel toe)
I like Key brand.
Have round house carpenter jeans...they are the best
I've been wearing a pair of Liberty's which are great but not actually made in America.
I have never heard of round house ever
Overalls always ride up when I wear them... maybe Round House won't be so... binding.
Oh yeah, loosen up those straps. We can't have that!
I'm a Buffallo T Big Smith man. 😅
If you like the button fly, you better buy as many pair as you can now. They've stopped making them.
Red Kap overalls still have the button fly. The ones like Pa wears are the lot 966 traditional Round House. I think all the others they make have zippers.
I buy Dickies overalls. Made in Fort Worth.
The pair of those I've seen have the button hole for the pocket watch, but not the dedicated watch pocket
it does. It has also the fob pocket in the right hand side thigh pocket.@@farmhandscompanion
I love my carhartt overalls. ! USA made..
I stand corrected, then. That's good to know
I see a what you are sayin 😊
I can’t stand roundhouse. Te buckles always come abd get lost in the washing machine. I like Liberty bib overalls. They are most comfortable for me and I’ve been wearing overalls ever since I can remember growing up on the farm
👍🤠
I just looked at their website, they seem a bit pricey.
I'm 66 years old and I've never heard of this wonderful American company. Say NO to the Chinese!

Thank you for sharing, I'm going to buy a few for myself. Here is a great video on the company and their manufacture processes. Its great to see the tradition of American industry still pushing on! 'Made in the USA' is still the base for quality and stability.
