Mechanic / workshop shirt

I'm looking for cycle mechanic workshop shirts. I see Chain Reaction have a few but I want to find some others, there must be others out there! I wanted to get hold of a Park Tool one but that seems like a non starter.

Cheers!

eeehhhh
why a park one...? just go down to wilkinson's and buy yourself a cheap £4 apron! It is just going to get covered in mud/grease any way.

maybe he's looking to wear it as a fashion item. (shop shirt, not apron)

I've got a pedros one, it's actually dickies. but it's black and cost £5.

they're not really popular in this country

. . .not really, just as an alternative to riding in a tshirt, and would be more durable than a cycling jersey. BIG, cordura bags tend to grind up my tshirts with use. "mechanic" shirts I would like to think would be more durable that than an average one, and if its cheap, the better. If it has anything bike related on (cycle jersey wise) = cherry on the cake!

dunno, they tend to have a funny cut, bit tight around the shoulders and arms for me.
