Description

Rediscover a true piece of Scandinavian workwear heritage: these dead-stock, never-worn bib overalls by Fristads, dating from the late 1950s to early 1960s. Crafted in Sweden by the venerable Fristads workwear house — founded in 1925 and renowned for its durable, professional‐grade garments. 

 

Key features:

 

  • Constructed in original mid-century heavy cotton fabric — Fristads developed their own “FAS®” premium weave by the 1940s, which became a hallmark of their quality workwear.  
  • Classic bib-and-brace design: full front bib panel with adjustable shoulder straps, side buckle or button adjusters (depending on model), large patch pockets on the bib, reinforced stitching at stress points — exactly as crafted for Swedish craftsmen of the era.
  • Crisp, un-worn condition: dead-stock means the piece was never put into service and remains free of wear, repairs or alterations. The finish is original and retains factory crispness.
  • Authentic 1950s–60s provenance: During the 1950s Fristads grew rapidly and was supplying major industrial employers in Sweden with workwear, making this piece a snapshot of an era when quality workwear was built to last.  
  • Versatile for collectors and style enthusiasts: Perfect for vintage workwear collection, stylistic display, or retro fashion usage — offering robust functionality plus heritage aesthetic.
