What should I look for when purchasing workwear?

As a livestock farmer, you can choose from all sorts of workwear—it comes in all different types, colours, and sizes. Each design has its own unique and practical function, but on the whole, they are made for cleanliness, functionality, safety, and comfort while working in and around the stables. Our assortment is quite diverse and includes (disposable) overalls, work jackets, work trousers, tops, disposable clothing (i.e. for visitors), thermal wear, rainwear, children’s clothing, and accessories such as knee pads and safety glasses. Most of the workwear is outfitted with user-friendly zippers or snaps and there are often a number of handy pockets for tools.

What should I look for when purchasing workwear?

- Does the clothing have to match the job function (i.e. colour system)?

- Am I looking for a single article or separate work trousers / work jacket?

- What style am I looking for? American overalls, full-body trousers, or overalls with long sleeves?

- Do I need a zipper, buttons, or snaps?

- Does the clothing have to be waterproof?

- Does the clothing have to last or can it be of less expensive quality?

- Does the clothing have to be worn in hot or cold conditions?

- What size do I need?

After answering all these questions, choosing the right clothing should be quick and easy. Do you have more questions? Do you want more specific advice? Please contact one of our advisors.
