I suggest you have a look at the method and detergents used during cleaning / washing these smocks. This would help to understand if the smock properties deteriorated on account of such process. In addition, you could keep one unused sample for over

Loco, I like your textile design talent but if we make those smocks too trendy people will steal them and start wearing them in the malls. There are ESD smocks on the market that have temporary electrical integrity. One such style is called Nylostat.

Good article from Top Line. That does bring up a good point: how do you test that your smocks are working? Anyone? Almost as bad a a fat guy wearing a bunny suit - just looks like a dirty snowball!
