Great hybrid jacket

I’ve been looking for a lighter jacket that doesn’t compromise on sleeve protection and this BSX hybrid is it. The cotton body keeps me cool but the cowhide sleeves handle all the slag. The ventilation flap on the back is surprisingly effective, I can actually feel a breeze when I’m walking around.

Good quality flame resistant cotton, holds up to minor spatter.

Fits good, adjustable waist straps help it not be so boxy.

Best summer welding jacket I’ve found. The leather sleeves give me confidence when I’m under a car welding exhaust, but the cotton chest breathes so much better than my full leather coat. The scribe pockets are handy but I wish the inside pocket was a bit deeper.

Terrible quality. The zipper jammed on the second day and then ripped right off the track. Can’t believe I wasted money on this.

Not impressed. The cotton body is way too thin, I got burned right through it on my first day doing mild steel stick welding. Maybe okay for tig but not heavy duty.

Great concept mixing da FR cotton and leather. I do a lot of TIG and light MIG so I don’t need full leather heavy armor. The spark zone on the stomach is genius because that’s always where my shirts used to get burned up. Sizing runs pretty true, maybe slightly fitted.

The stand up collar is stiff enough to stay up without choking me, which is rare. I love the look of it too, definitely styled better than the old plain green jackets. Be careful with the cotton parts though, they are FR but heavy sparks will still burn through if you’re not careful.
