280341003 - Miller Ink Blue Denim Work Shirt - Large

Classic Protection for Welders and Fabricators

When it comes to welding and metal fabrication, what you wear is the first line of defense. The Miller 280341003 Denim Value Shirt (Size Large) is an essential piece of apparel for any welder's wardrobe. While heavy leathers are necessary for high-amperage overhead work, a high-quality denim shirt is the standard for light-duty welding, TIG applications, and general shop fabrication. Miller Electric, a leader in arc welding technology, brings that same commitment to quality to their apparel line, ensuring this shirt meets the practical needs of the trade.

The primary advantage of this shirt is its 100% cotton denim construction. In a welding environment, synthetic blends are a hazard; they can melt and fuse to the skin if struck by a stray spark. Cotton denim, conversely, will char rather than melt, providing a significantly higher safety margin for the wearer. This shirt serves as an excellent secondary layer under a welding jacket or as a primary layer for low-spatter processes. The dense weave of the denim also helps block UV radiation generated by the arc, preventing "welder's flash" burns on the arms and torso.

Beyond safety, the shirt is designed for the working welder. The cuffs are adjustable, allowing for a snug fit inside welding gloves to prevent sparks from entering the sleeve. The button-down front is robust, and the collar can be flipped up to provide additional neck protection if needed. The Ink Blue color is iconic and professional, signaling a serious approach to the craft. With two secure chest pockets, you have a dedicated spot for your tungsten, scribes, and nozzle gel, keeping your workflow uninterrupted.
