In its early years, the boilersuit was mainly worn by railroad workers and mechanics, which is where its name is derived from as the mechanics would work on locomotive boilers. Since then, it’s become the uniform of choice for factory workers, pilots, race car drivers, rock stars, astronauts, artists, and even ghost-hunters.
