Common questions
Can I wear tough outdoor trousers for work?
First check whether your workplace requires specific protective clothing. Where no special protection is needed, choose for movement, pocket layout and the wear the fabric will face.
Can I insert any knee pads?
Use pads approved by the manufacturer for the trousers. Shape, position and the intended combination need to match; then try the trousers while kneeling.
How can I avoid a gap at my lower back?
Crouch and reach forward. The waistband should hold and the jacket should cover it without leaving a gap. Try this with the layers you actually wear during the working day.
Softshell or rain jacket?
A flexible softshell suits movement and wind. For prolonged rain, choose an outer jacket designed to keep water out. Read the stated properties of the particular model.
