Silly question: How are overalls sized? Is 36/34 waist then inseam, like pants?

Yes, but depending on how you want to use them you may want to size up. Tight overalls not only look odd, they cannot be used for the purpose of covering other apparel. I wear 34/30 in dress slacks and 38/32 in overalls. My favorite brand is the prewashed Liberty relaxed stone washed. I like the number of useful pockets and zip fly. I get them pretty cheap at EBay.

3 facts:
1 those bibs look great
2 it's really cold here
3 Discovering TFL is costing me a lot of $
I agree Bfd, I think they look pretty good. And wear great when it's cold. I'll also agree that they are on the expensive side. I happened to run across this pair in a local vintage store, so I picked them up at a more reasonable price.

Michael, what are the boots? Barefoot brand? Cork sole?

The boots with the Norfolk jacket are Red Wing Iron Rangers 8111. So they have whatever that cork in rubber sole is that Red Wing uses.

Thanks all,
Michael
