Sometimes, Work’s tough, but you’re tougher. We all need equipment and workwear that we can rely on in all conditions, here’s the 5 design features we ensure are in every single WORKTOUGH® item of workwear and safety footwear.
1 – Fit
The most important part of anything you wear is the fit, well fitting clothing, workwear and footwear lasts longer and is more comfortable.
At WORKTOUGH® we use tapered, flattering fits that allow freedom of movement around the shoulders and arms. Our cuffs are adjustable or carefully hemmed to ensure garments fit well.
We pay close attention to wearer feedback and the core of the WORKTOUGH® design ideas is in the detail.
2 – Functionality
When you leave the house, you normally go ‘phone, keys, wallet/purse’ right?… Did I lock the door?
At WORKTOUGH® our designs include lots of zip pockets, velcro pockets, kangaroo pouches, holsters, of different sizes and orientations for all your gear, tools and equipment all day.
We reinforce the right areas, we make intelligent and considerate material choices that ensure your workwear keeps up with you, and doesn’t slow you down.
From using stretch fabric to allow movement to reinforcing areas that face abrasion you can trust that we’ve carefully selected the best materials for the job.
3 – Technology
We’re partnered with globally recognised technology, testing, materials and components brands. To reinforce high abrasion areas like knees and elbows and keep our zips working year on year.
These include:
Cordura Durability Panelling
Cordura is a collection of synthetic fibre-based fabric technologies used in a wide array of products including luggage, backpacks, trousers, military wear and performance apparel.
Many tests have claimed that Cordura actually has more abrasion-resistance than Kevlar and that the elasticity that the nylon-based Cordura provides actually makes the fabric far more ‘useful’.
YKK Zips
The world leader in zip development and manufacture, YYK zips are the go to choice for performance design and manufacturing.
4 – Considerate Branding
Choosing the right workwear, equipment and safety gear is an important part of everyone’s time at work, whether buying for yourself or for your colleagues as part of a uniform.
It’s important that your colleagues and customers know you’re sourcing from a trusted brand but you’re the centre of attention.
That’s why our WORKTOUGH® ranges include modest but striking branding in neutral areas, wear these badges with pride and shout about a responsibly sourced, designed in Sheffield, brand that is looking to provide value for money, exceptional design solutions and world leading technology, at high street prices.
