Walters Apron, a No Tie Apron for Men
A gentleman wrote an email to me that began with the inquiry. “Why do only women get a No Tie Apron? Why can’t guys have one? It can’t be that difficult.” He wasn’t the only one, I received more inquiries that began the same. I was not only happy to respond but I really wanted to hear details, thoughts and…

The real subject here is linen colors. We have added both Olive and Charcoal Grey. Time tested, beloved and proven by their everlasting…
