Don’t know if this place has been mentioned before but just ran across it in Tacoma, Wa. last week. They had every kind of Carhartt made and good prices. Big stock of Danner boots. I’m more of a Red Wing guy but Danner’s are good. Prices seemed good for Seattle/Tacoma area.
Whistle Work Wear
On line store, too.

That is where I buy most of my gear. We all wear Grundens on our site. It is by far the best rain gear. It's so comfortable that I wear it when it's really cold. The Petrus 760 and the Petrus 160 in orange so it matches. At an OR Seattle Sombrero hat and you are good to go for the rain.
It was raining the entire time I was there and it was hard to believe almost nobody had an umbrella or was wearing a rain hat.
Guess you're used to it so much you don't even notice it?

Oh, I notice it. You can get used to it, but you always notice it
Had some pretty good chinese food at the Pike Place Market.

In Seattle/Tacoma area, buy ALL my work clothes at either the Southcenter or Renton Highlands Goodwill stores on $1.29 Mondays. Even got a pair of new steel toed boot there for $1.29 (no brand name, made in China)
PS: only 6.5" rain in the last week <G>

Next storm is on the way.
I went to a Goodwill store in Lakewood, I think it was. Pretty nice. Got an end table for 8.99. Good shape, too.
Just never could get over how people just disregarded the constant rain.
When the sun came out one day there were about 20 cars in a crash on I-5 because of the sun.
An we're burning up in Texas because of no rain.
