I really like it, Only had it for about a week now but I use it almost every day, It seems durable.
NOW i can pick with all 4 hands!
Simple. Easy to put on/get off.
HOWEVER, THE NYLON BELT CONTINUES TO GET TWISTED INSIDE THE WEBBING OF THE “FRUIT BAG”. That places the adjustment devices on the inside next to your body. The nylon belt came with a “memory twist” that was inside the bag part. I thought I might try to iron it out but because it is synthetic I’m concerned that it might melt. I’ve decided to get a replacement. This small defect is really a PITA.
BTW, I am not using this all day, just for 30-40 minutes maybe twice a day.
So, if you are a really serious/professional harvester you might need a bag with shoulder straps.
I think that this item would be a good choice for a casual home gardener.
It would be a nice touch if it came with a holster for a 1911 Colt .45acp.

I forage for wild plants and make my own plant medicines. I also garden and harvest an array of plants and fruits.
This apron is so perfect for ALL of my harvesting needs. I am in love with it! It came much nicer than I expanded. Great quality. One pouch which I thought I’d be bummed about for harvesting multiple plants at the same time, but it’s helped me refine my harvesting. It looks super nice and is very comfortable.
Would recommend.

Where has this been all my life? It’s so handy to be able to have my pruners with me when I’m watering, and able to put the trimmings in the pocket as I go. Then I just turn the pocket inside out to dump it in the trash or compost pile. Next, it’s ready for harvesting all those cucumbers & zucchinis that just seem to multiply overnight. Really handy. I’d definitely recommend the one with the pocket as the pruners being handy is half the battle! The material is durable canvas and seems like it will hold up quite well.

Great for picking and handling things from the garden. Makes a great gift

Belt doesn’t stay tight when wearing it, keeps slipping and most times it just falls off. It is good for picking up weeds in my lawn while watering. I washes okay too. I had to put another belt on it to have it work better for me.

I use to stuff my lil pockets, u know how that goes. 🤦🏻♀️ Harvesting is so much easier with this belted pouch!!! 😆 I love to listen to Spotify n work but my cell kept getting lost in the bottom of everything in the pouch. Viola! I cut up the bottoms of an old khaki capri n easily made back pockets sewn onto the backside of the belt. Now I can access my cell easily in one pocket n also clippers + rubbing alcohol spray bottle in the other pocket. Just in case my waist gets smaller I used big stitches so as to easily cut the pockets off.
Hvnt washed it yet but when I do I’ll insert it in a lingerie bag b4 putting in the washer. Want it to last a long time bc I just love it!
I saw another “picker” version in a WA antique shop which I almost bought but while there searched Amazon just in case n found this one. OMGoodness! I am so so hapPy! It’s a simple design which I could make it myself but it’s such a big treat not to 🥰 since it’s so affordable!
The canvas is soft, not scratchy. In fact, it’s comfortable in that at times I forget that I hvnt taken it off.
The two hooks remind me of luggage interior hooks on elastic holding the pouch closed when there’s a full load. The interior size is just right 😂 so as not to start hobbling bc u accidentally overload it. It does get weighty if u push its limit but I hvnt had a problem. Only thing, u hv to mind what you’re picking bc u might hv ants or spiders crawling on u🤣 like I hv had. No biggie.
This is every gardener’s must-have necessity!

I bought this initially to gather eggs in everyday. I have a large flock and also have an egg apron that holds 10 eggs. I needed something bigger cause I have way more than 10 hens, which means way more than 10 eggs a day. I wasn’t expecting to love this apron this much. It’s comfortable and is adjustable for different waist sizes. I haven’t washed it yet, but I don’t see an issue with it. It’s canvas material feels durable, a lot better than my previous egg apron. I plan on using this for garden harvests this growing season too.
I’ve held 54 eggs at one time in this apron. The metal hooks give it stability when walking long distances. 54 eggs and not one broke. I honestly can’t recommend this enough.
