I am seeking a company online or off that sells men's corduroy
overalls in black for under $50.  I am looking for the type WITHOUT
all the 'hoops' and extra pockets (just for the hands) like painters
overalls have.  I am not looking for coveralls or a working mans
overall nor am I looking for black denim jeans.  My height is 5' 10",
waist is 32 and I am 170#.  While I perfer men's I realize that this
isn't a usually men's item and would be willing to look at a women's
version.  I am looking for two sources peferably.

dmoore - 

Google launched a new service today, called "froogle."
Froogle is a product search engine.
A quick search for corduroy overalls using the search strategy -

"corduroy overalls" women

at url - 

froogle.google.com

brings up no less than 29 results!

(it doesn't seem that there are any men's products available)

I hope that this will satisfy your need for such a pair.

In addition, Pointer Brand overalls are available at -

www.pointerbrand.com

Please let me know if you need additional assistance with this request.

thanks,
ragingacademic

To clarify a bit, I did check and the Silhouettes are available in
your size in black; they're actually on sale for $29.99!

thanks again,

dmoore -

thanks so much for your rating.

Perhaps you did not read my clarification -

"I did check and the Silhouettes are available in
your size in black; they're actually on sale for $29.99!"

I added this since it was not immediately evident from my initial
response that the exact item you are seeking is available - you would
have had to click down one level.

The item is available exactly on this page -

http://www.silhouettes.com/parent.asp?product=508083x&dept_id=8000&code=GoogleDF

You will have to select your size and color from the drop down menus,
but they're there... (32, black)

In addition, I directed you to the source of the overalls being sold
on ebay - and I provided you with a site where you will be able to
find sources for the clothes (and other products...) you desire for
ever after.

Thanks again for the rating.

I guess what do you expect for $5.  The 35 hits are from 4 stores,
none of which carry black (which was one of the requirements).  I had
found pointer in my search but they too do not carry overalls in black
corduroy.

The comment provided by the other individual was helpful though.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1902821108
This is a link to an ebay auction for a size 10 in womens which is
about a 31 inch waist I believe.

A useful men to women's size convertor can be found here
http://www.frogen.com/help/sizechart/sizeconverter.asp

Also, Old Navy, Rue 21 and PointerBrand appear to have made Corduroy
overalls in the past, but their current product listings don't appear
to include them so you may be able to find some decent used ones on
ebay or at your local thrift stores.

much thanks sappafly!  i've put in a bid on the ebay item and i will
recheck some other clothing resale shops.

thanks

A men's 30-32 would be about a size 10 in womens.  These to the best
of knowledge are showing 32-36 womens.

Thanks though.
