Big Yank · Coverall
Reliance Manufacturing sold coveralls under its Big Yank name alongside the work shirts that made it famous, and the denim coverall is what most buyers mean by a Big Yank chore coat. The brand's Japanese revival based its 1955 Coverall on a real 1950s Big Yank piece, a boxy work jacket with four front pockets, a flap on one chest pocket and double-needle felled seams. Big Yank also made a 1960s denim jacket in the Levi's Type III style, with an X stitched on each chest pocket and the plain stock buttons store brands used. We found no record of the striped lining sometimes credited to Big Yank coats, so judge one on its tag and construction instead. Look for a coat with its tag still in, and check the pit to pit, since coveralls are cut to go over other layers.
Date it from the photos
Reissues and repros
The Japanese Big Yank revival sells a 1955 Coverall in nep denim based on a 1950s Big Yank original, with brass buttons stamped BIG YANK and the Reliance diamond. It's made in Japan, so the tag settles it.
If you’ll wear it
Any sound Big Yank coverall makes a good work or everyday jacket. Fit is what matters, so measure.
If you’ll collect it
Look for an original Big Yank tag, original buttons and a body free of major repairs.
Go by pit to pit, back length and sleeve. Coveralls are cut boxy to go over other clothes, so the measurements tell you more than the tag. Ask for pit to pit measured flat with the coat buttoned, then double it.

Measurements first, then the details
Look for frayed cuffs and collar points, worn pocket corners and missing or replaced buttons. Replaced buttons are normal on work coats and don't stop it being a good wearer.
Buying guide
For a Big Yank denim jacket, we'd take the 1960s Sanforized one titled S/M with 19x23 measurements at $119 delivered. We found 12 for sale, all from US sellers, and most ask $60–150 delivered. Most are the 1960s jacket Big Yank made in the Levi's Type III style, with an X stitched on each chest pocket, rather than the boxy four-pocket coverall. A printed care label means 1971 or later, Made in Japan means the modern revival, and Union Made fits mid-century work clothes. Go by pit to pit, back length and sleeve, and check seller feedback on the item page, since eBay's cards don't show it here.
