About Us
THE ORIGIN STORY
How did we start our welding apparel company? Well, it all started with a hardworking welder that saw a need in his industry. Our founder, Mac Schurr, is a proud Albertan who began working as a welder at the young age of 18. He eventually went on to open his own welding company, Up In Smoke Welding.
In his decade of working in welding, Mac was just not impressed at how welders gear doesn't fit their harsh working environment. All of his work clothes seemed to wear out in all of the same spots, and no matter how he layered, he couldn't find the protection he needed. So, we created an option for all welders to have safety gear created for them.
Up In Smoke Welding Apparel made its first sale in February of 2015 and has now grown to the company's current size and reputation. We are now proudly worn by welders across the world and have various styles of safety jackets, pants, and branded apparel.
