I want to say that Wayne was offering them for sale way way back in the day? I vaguely remember around the time of the 996 launch we were already being nostalgic and I almost bought one but didn't.

OK, what's the deal on obtaining a pair? Who has the intel on this? You would think Porsche would be giving these away to anybody who owned one, or two, or three.

Seriously? Porsche give anything away? Looks like Mr. Brown gave you the hook up.

Draco has it right buy a pair of dickies. Manufacturers don't give these away and they are actually hard to get if you are looking at factory coveralls but the manufacturers I have worked for have had plants in Japan, Germany, Solvakia, etc. dealers usually use local uniform suppliers that supply coveralls to different manufacturer speciation levels.

Since 2001 and Porsche being very protective of logos / trademarks it is a different world.
A patch is you best bet.
Even then believe it or not ... how you use it / represent it is "controlled"

There was a pair in the classifieds recently but they were White and small. Not sure how practical white is for most of us.

No, that's unisexual...metrosexual you have to pluck your eyebrows, get a facial and some brotox.

We might as well put women in the Infantry by the looks of some of the men today.

LOL... depending on the project, I sometime come home from the shop looking like I did a belly flop in a pool of oil/grease.

made a joke with my real mechanic friend that he is never dirty. told him he cant be a real mechanic if he never gets dirty. he said only noob mechanics get dirty....

I prefer coveralls over overalls especially for working under the car. I have a Dickies short sleeve for the summer and an army surplus long sleeve for the winter. Pelican sells a cool pair but without the Porsche logo.

Yes, she is topless because she is not doing the work, but "helping" do the work.
