WHO ARE WE?
Up In Smoke Welding Apparel was born out of dissatisfaction with available welding safety gear. Our founder, Mac, identified a gap in the market and took action!
Specifically designed for welders, our apparel is both durable and safe. With a wide range of options, we strive to provide the best safety gear for every job.
A Gift Card That Won’t End Up in the Drawer
Up in Smoke Gift Cards let welders choose gear they’ll actually wear, premium welding gear designed to handle heat, sparks, and long shifts.
I’ve been purchasing welding apparel for the last two years from MAC and his company Up In Smoke Welding. By far this is the best FR you can buy. Anyone working in the trades known how rough it can be on your clothes when grinding, cutting, plasma, arc gouging or just burning rod and wire. I’ve bought lots of other brands and once I made my first purchase from Up In Smoke I’ve never turned back.
