Getting out of bed in the mornings can be hard enough, but getting up to work in the fields in torrential rain and sub-zero temperatures requires willpower – and Dickies waterproof workwear. Dickies – the UK's leading workwear manufacturer – can offer agricultural workers a range of waterproof products designed to provide warmth and comfort during the winter.
The All Weather Suit is sufficiently lightweight for work while still affording excellent protection against the rain. The jacket and trousers are made from PVC-coated nylon with stitched and tape-welded seams for superior water resistance. The jacket has a corduroy collar, a hood for when the heavens open and several good size pockets. The zip fastening has a storm-flap giving added protection from the wind and rain, while the trousers have side access and an adjustable ankle width allowing them to be easily pulled over boots.
A trouser-jacket combination is also available in modern Fieldtex fabric. This outstanding breathable fabric is not only waterproof and wind resistant but it also has a built-in stretch factor, allowing greater flexibility of movement. However tough the job, Fieldtex is tougher still – you can stretch it, machine-wash it, pour oil and petrol over it and it will bounce back as good as new. For a watertight finish all seams are stitched and tape-welded. Durable, versatile and virtually noiseless, the Fieldtex range is designed for energetic outdoor activities. A coverall and a bib and brace are also available in this fabric.
Offering protection against both the cold and the rain is the Waterproof Padded Coverall. Manufactured from a PVC coated Nylon fabric this excellent winter garment has a quilted inner lining. The seams have been stitched and tape welded and there is a detachable hood. Other features include a two way zip front closure with velcro fastening storm flap, a detachable hood, and an elasticated panel around the back of the waist for ease of movement.
Dickies supplies a range of Wellington boots suitable for agricultural workers. One of the most popular styles is the Landmaster Safety Boot which not only keeps your feet dry, but the steel toe-cap complying with EN345 (200 joules) offers protection against crush injuries. The sturdy sole is resistant to fats, oils and petrol to minimise the risk of slipping. Made from 100% polyurethane with a layer of thermal insulation, these boots provide great wet weather protection.
These are just a few products from Dickies comprehensive range that will provide foul weather protection and comfort throughout the winter. For further information on Dickies workwear call 01761 410041 or visit www.dickies-uk.co.uk
