Waterproof Workwear

Learn more about waterproof workwear

Investing in high-performance waterproof workwear is essential for maintaining site safety and comfort throughout the rainy season. Unlike basic water-resistant garments, certified site rainwear features taped water-tight seams and storm flaps over heavy-duty zips to stop driving rain. Modern technical fabrics combine rugged outer shells with breathable internal membranes, preventing internal condensation buildup so you stay comfortable during physical labor.

Typical uses

• Waterproof work jackets for rainy day site work, outdoor trades and general day to day use.

• Waterproof work trousers for wet ground, mud and jobs where you need lower body protection.

• Waterproof hi vis workwear for live sites and roadside work where visibility matters as well as weather protection.

• Waterproof safety boots and waterproof steel toe boots for muddy yards, loading areas and wet underfoot conditions.

How to choose the right waterproof workwear

• Match the item to your level of exposure, a waterproof jacket may be enough for short spells of rain, while waterproof clothing with trousers or overalls suits longer wet shifts.

• Check whether you need breathable waterproof workwear if you are moving around a lot or working at pace.

• Look at reinforcement, seam protection and closure details on durable waterproof work clothing if the kit will get heavy use.

• Allow room for layers underneath if you work through colder weather.

• If visibility is part of the job, choose waterproof safety clothing or waterproof hi vis workwear with the right specification for your site.

Before you order

• Check the size, the cut and how the kit will work with the rest of your PPE.

• Review the product specifications for the level of waterproof protection, seam type and any safety markings before you buy.

• If you wear layers underneath, leave enough room for movement without the fit becoming bulky.

• If you need a jacket, trousers, boots or full coverage, use the category to narrow the options to the kit that suits your work.
