I just get naked and go up to a bucket of grease and just take a brush and start brushing it all over myself. Then I dump a bag of goose feathers on myself for insulation. Afterwards I spray paint the feathers Hi-Vis orange a bit followed by a misting of Marvel Mystery Oil for extra waterproofing and for the aroma. Now I look professional and suspicious so no one talks to me while I'm working. When the day is done, I jump in the lake, rinse and repeat for the next day, unless I get arrested.
Hahahaha bro wtf. What about your gloves and safety glasses?!?!?
@@TekamoHD I use Michael Jackson edition sparkly (Hi-Vis) Wells Lamont gloves and whatever glasses the gas station clerk throws at me to leave. Sometimes I get lucky and he throws ones shaped like flowers at me. Makes the other guys jealous on the jobsite since they avoid eye contact.
@@schmojo33 Hahaha we hope we keep seeing you in the comments Joe
buddy seems like a great journeyman to work for. Lots of laughs.
Down in Texas uniform attire is wranglers and hi vis long sleeves. Funny how stuff differs from area to area.
Redwings are the best. Worth every penny. Having the right gear making working in shit weather so much better. Please start selling Covies. I’d love a pair! Especially with your logo on them.
Hey Brady. We'll try and get some made up for y'all. Thanks for the love.
if you guys made the tekamo coveralls available for purchase I'd buy a few pairs for sure
Great Stuff! Thanks for the info. It would be awsome to see a video of how this channel started and what the connection is with Cam and his company. Keep em' coming!
Yoyoyo Mr. International. We'll definitely make a video on how this whole channel got started man. But pretty much our goal is to build a community and show people how cool of a job heavy duty is. We want to encourage people to get into the trade, get their own trucks, and wrench.
I swear by my redwings, they hold up well to all the grease, hyd fluid, sparks, mud and whatever else. We get coverall service at work, and man is it nice!
But two pairs of redwings as advice is like a dagger in my wallet 😂 worth every penny, swapping to fresh socks after hours n hours when you have more to go makes a huge difference too I found
Hahaha your wallet will hate you but your feet will love you if you get good sets of boots.
We wear the same boots. Great minds think alike lmao. Mine aren’t Steelies though nor tough toe, but lack of grip on the sole makes them not fill full of mud and track into cabs and whatnot. The 606 is awesome for summer. Not mean looking like a garbage man. I was a garbage man. Still am sometimes when guys don’t show up.
Ya man!!! How long do the boots usually last you?
@@TekamoHD 12 to 16 months. I walk around on recycled aggregate a bunch and it destroys my boots. When I replace them they are completely trashed. 606’s I’m wearing now have wore the gummy sole out and the sole is exposed under the ball of my foot. Still the most comfortable boot ever owned.
I typically wear bib overalls and insulated jeans... But covies, might be a great idea too!!!
You gotta try them coveralls
I wear the 2412’s in the winter because they are insulated over the 2414’s. In the summer I wear 2233’s. Relatively light and very comfortable IMO.
The overalls are a very uniquely Canadian style. Mainly the positioning of the hi-viz bands. Oddly we also have the Helly Hansen waterproof bibs here, but they are a different style.
yep, old timer i used to work with worked in a patch up north and he had a few pairs we were all jealous lmao
Do you know what kind of style they are? Curious to see what's different.
@@ericd7761 Hahaha coveralls are awesome eh. What did y'all end up wearing?
@@TekamoHD pretty much everyone in MN gets their unis from cintas, so we had their crappy covies
Helly Hansen is the only gear to get in rain gear.
Those orange ones got developed for oil rig workers in the north sea.
i love redwings for in shop use. i used a pair when i went into the field and they didn't hold up to dirt and sand in Arizona. i would climb up a 657 and dump out the sand at the end of the day. i bought some ariat square toe steel toe boots and they are amazing against water, oil, grease, and the damn sand. i love wearing redback bamboo socks. they are comfortable, soft, and thick. they keep my feet from sweating and smelling.
Those redback bamboo's are no joke i love mine
So many crap coveralls down here in the oilfield company’s give out. Started buying my own
I might be late commenting, just found you guys and working my way back watching the videos... The Cuvies Cam is wearing might be the Tough Duck Unlined S792 comes in both red and blue. Or, had a pair of Vikings BC made brought from Marks Workwear, in Edmonton, not sure if it's still Marks? I bought a set long ago couldn't find Viking in states, so I bought the Tough Duck ones. Love the Tough Duck, I buy from Tractor Supply.
Man i wish the coveralls would be more popular here in the States. So much more comfortable
I'm sure you are very busy with your work and also editing videos for us. Really appreciate your hard work and also thank you very much for your video. I see, you are from Canada. I'm from Canada too! XD Might see you one day. Would definitely like to share your hand. Have a good day and stay safe. :)
Luke! Nice to see you in the comments again. Yeah man, what area you working in?
Noticed you got a video with some Land Rovers. We got a film guy here looking to buy a disco 2.
@@TekamoHD I live here in Vancouver, BC. And those Land Rovers were from Korea; while staying there. I needed a car to commute.
I go with some wolverine durashocker I like wolverine boots fit my feet good. Not too bad for $150. I might try some redwing one day to see if it’s worth it.
Redwings are great but replace the insoles in them. The ones they come with suck, and theres no real kick plate in the boot so I always get an insole with a hard plastic bottom on them for redwings
Must be a field mechanic boot my dads been a equipment mechanic his whole life and these are all he wears 😂
I could really use some covies! I don't get quite as dirty for my job, but I could see the benefit in having a couple pairs. Throw some my way will ya?
The main reason I don't use coveralls is it hot as RIP 10 months a year, pants and a shirt is all you can take when its 95f and 80% humidity.
Aramark makes those covies, I wear them provided by Waste Management (Garbage Boys) and the same Redwings also provided with the uniform
I'm in Chicago area we wear normally work pants and shirts the bluish ones n normally the thick carhardt in winter if you are a field guy
I'd buy coveralls too orange and blue
Did redwings come Thur with some boots lol best boots I’ve found as well
so talking about waterproofing boots right or wrong a good coat of motor oil on the weekends works better than you would think
Had a foreman that everyone called dad to, and treated us all like his little sh*t head sons, that we were (in a comically, degrading and loving way). The guy could make the worst, most frustrating days on site a better one, mostly by busting your balls. Having Teachers and people in leadership roles with a good sense of humour can really affect crew morale or an apprentice
When I was 19, worked together with my girlfriends dad. (Now 46, married with three kids with that same girl)
I normally would call him by his first name, but when there were colleagues around I would call him “dad” or “daddy” (everyone knew I was “the boyfriend”)
He would throw spanners at my head when I called him dad. Great times.
I miss him (past away a few years ago)
What kind of Gloves do you use in the Canadian winter ? Like, are they waterproof and insulated ?
Looks like a Case 330 or 340B Truck in the background. Major service ??
Franticly looking for the link for the Tekamo branded covies 0.0
where is the link for the coveralls id be down to buy a few pairs
I work on garbage hahaha deff got the look brother ahha
💪💪
As an American, we do indeed wear jeans and a tshirt/reflective vest
i think cam missed his real calling of being a runway model
Whats the Brand of those coveralls?
The 2414’s are the best boots ever
Have you tried any of their other styles?
Tekamo HD in the redwing line yes moc toes the king toe line but other brands I’ve had Irish setters danners thorogoods but I end up going back to redwing and the 2414’s are the most comfortable boot I’ve ever had
I have the same boots, after 3 months they aren’t waterproof
Oh yeah I have some coveralls and they are hard as shit to get on and off my shoulders cam has any advice? May just have to get a bigger pair but they are kind of baggy now I’d hate for them to get baggier lol.
Hey Aaron. Try getting the tall version of your size and hemming the legs if you need to. What brand and style of coveralls do you buy right now? We're planning on creating our own so they're designed for HD work so any feedback is appreciated. What you like, dislike about your covies, etc.
@@TekamoHD I have broad shoulders Idk if it’s from all the steroids but anyways. I would like some that have an elastic band around the waist and maybe some that zip down far so they are easy to take on and off.
Overalls tend to be sized by chest, but if you've got bodybuilder arms then you may struggle to find any with big enough sleeves. You may find a bib overall and jacket a better option. When I was serving my apprenticeship at the steelworks the guys all had broad shoulders and the coveralls (boilersuits) were very outsized to fit the shoulders, but hung loose at the waist and crotch. I'm not going to lie, I loved that unintentional hip-hop look.
If you're tall, don't get coveralls that are too short on the body length, as they can put a lot of pressure on your spine. The best sizing is baggy with plenty of freedom for movement, including reaching overhead.
@@TekamoHD side leg pockets with the flap. Extra big please. I hate having my phone in the front pocket.
Tekamo covies would be awesome..I have work uniforms for my shop ,but am getting tired of how the don’t hide the dirt
What's up Terry!! Yeah we'll try to get some made up for y'all. What does your shop got you wearing right now?
@@TekamoHD we just changed to a rip stop uniform from Cintas and they're junk.
Covies are kinda hard to come by in the states. Not to popular. I bought some red covies with 3m reflective stripping from BigBill FR. They're great but kinda tear easy if they get caught on something. Im looking for red reflective covies from other brands if anyone knows where I could find them, or who makes them?
We can try to stock some red covies for ya.
Lotsa covies here on this side of Ohio.
@@chadrides914 Where do you buy your covies Chad? Do you happen to know the brand and style?
@@TekamoHD I don’t know. I don’t personally wear them. I see guys wearing them often on sites though.
@@TekamoHD I run a small company in massachusetts, so I'd be interested to buy from you for me and the guys.
Where this video shot?
British Columbia
15 covies?
I go trough 4 during my 14-day shift 😜
Also, if you are in Europe. The only boots to get are Sievi's.
Finish quality, lasts for years.
@@Tmjpwns Ah I see you're an evening sunrise kind of person too.
What model of Sievi's do you wear? Might try to get a hold of some and see if they're good.
I wear coveralls and my company gets them through Cintas. They give us two pairs and wash them once a week! Wish they gave us more lol
What area are you in?? Ya gotta ask for one per day lol
@@TekamoHD Kentucky! We get six work pants and six button down shirts. Might ask if I can swap out some pants and shirts for more covies cause I like them more anyway lol
Lmao my coveralls come from the uniform service. I hate em. I burn myself regularly and they patch my shit up with new material my coveralls look like a train wreck. 2 piece would be mint tho for when your on yer butt and reaching up. No more fighting your clothes.
I usually get the tall sizes to help with the reaching and prevent riding up the crevasse, never noticed the covies hindering my movement too much.
Do you buy food out or make your own sarnies
All the guys are different. Some pack lunch, some buy food on their way to the job site. Depends on the days too and where you're working. Most recently we've been buying sandwiches from Starbucks and throwing them in the heated lunch box lol.
What do you wear on your day off??
cleaner coveralls
What dude wants to know about the Camsters wardrobe?
What about underwear? What do you wear for underwear?
What underwear?
@@TekamoHD 😂
Where's the Covie link? Wtf over 🤙
My tony lama boots are pretty skookum.
Where would you like because you're the one that's going to be in it for anywhere from 12:00 to 15 hours a day do you know what works for you you are a professional have a nice day and God bless you
Timberland boondock pro’s are trash. Highly recommend Carhartt boots. I highly recommend Carhartt rugged flex 6 inch with composite safety toe. The timberlands only lasted 7 months. The Carhartts have lasted going on 3 years. The Carhartt’s are more durable, more comfortable and grip better.
I go with some wolverine durashocker I like wolverine boots fit my feet good. Not too bad for $150. I might try some redwing one day to see if it’s worth it.
Where do you get 'em?
@@TekamoHD Think it was an eBay special purchase.
