Our Proguard clearance aprons are the perfect option for those who need their radiation protection apparel fast and affordable. So why are these items clearanced? Simple. We make mistakes (sometimes). Those mistakes are usually just an incorrect fabric color, core material or size for an order. No foul play here! Most of these aprons have never even left the facility. So you get a brand new, Proguard quality apron for just a fraction of the price. Plus, we’re not really into the “wasting” thing, so we love seeing our apron misfits find their forever homes. Sounds like a win-win to us.
We update our clearance list regularly, so if you didn’t see anything suited to you, check back another time. Please Note, all clearance apron sales are final.
