WABASH BIB OVERALL
DESCRIPTION
- The WABASH BIB OVERALL was a popular work garment worn by Steam Locomotive crews in the early 20th Century.
- Its light weight and relative breathability meant it could be used to cover undergarments in hot conditions, such as those found while driving & firing a Steam Train without overheating.
- In the early 1900s, calico fabric surged in popularity, specifically they were targeted towards railroad workers and labourers.
- Coinciding with this, 'discharge printing' emerged as a technique in fabric manufacturing.
- The technique of discharge printing involves dyeing of fabrics, followed by the creation of a repeated stripe dot pattern or polka dot, through a process that removes dye from the fabric via oxidation.
- By the 1910s, companies were crafting custom prints that showcased railroad logos for employees to buy.
- Indigo dyeing was a common and popular choice of dye for calico overalls and one that had been brought to America through European settlers.
- The process of discharge printing on indigo would eventually earn the name “Wabash”.
- The term "Wabash fabric" likely originated from its adoption by the Wabash Railroad for uniforms.
- It became colloquially known as 'Wabash' fabric and was briefly named as such in clothing catalogues from the 1910s.
- Decades later, when the fabric experienced a revival, it was once again given the moniker 'Wabash.’
- The buttons used in this garment, are referred to as "Economy Riveted Buttons," which were commonly seen in the 1930s and were custom-made.
- The fine lines and thinness of the button top, as well as the curvature of the stem, are a testament to the level of craftsmanship that went into their creation.
- The garment benefits from slanted pockets at the waist and left thigh and a single patch pocket to the rear.
- Indigo Dyed Discharge Printed Fabric
- Economy Black Oxidised Button
