Using this welding jacket is easy. Just put it on like any regular jacket. Make sure the Velcro collar is flipped up when you're welding to get that extra protection. Store your small items in the large inside left pocket. When it comes to maintenance, clean the leather part with a soft, damp cloth regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the leather. Don't expose the jacket to extreme heat or flames when it's not in use. Also, check the stitching and Velcro periodically to ensure they're in good condition. If there are any signs of wear and tear, get it repaired promptly. And always select the right size from the drop - down menu for a comfortable fit.
