Especially for manual occupations, not only the right tools are required but also the right work clothes. Our work overalls, shoes, gloves and work pants are manufactured after extensive research and studies to reduce the risks that are inherent in the work time for a worker on a construction site or factory, an electrician, painter, builder, carpenter, handyman or plumber .
With the right work clothes, workers reduce the risk of accidents and fatigue during work. In this article we will answer the key question "What work clothes should I buy?" according to the specific needs of each profession.
Choose the Right Work Pants
The most important criterion for choosing a pair of work trousers is of course the size, but there are other equally important criteria. For example, each pair of pants has a different fit, i.e. they can be fitted (slim) or wider. Consider which application will give you greater ease of movement when you work. Many professionals such as pavers, tire repairers and jokers need to kneel and bend, so a wider fit would be more comfortable for them. Elastic pants are not just practical, but essential for these professions.
Another criterion for choosing the right work pants is its material. Cotton work trousers provide more protection as they are thicker and more durable than everyday cotton clothing. If you are still working in a warm environment, it would be good to prefer lighter fabrics.
If your occupation brings you into contact with liquids and chemicals, choose trousers specially made to withstand such conditions. Usually these pants carry safety signs and information about their use and durability. For example, they can be antistatic, waterproof, flame retardant, etc.

Find the Ideal Work Forms
As with work pants, so with overalls for professionals, size, durability, fit, quality of construction material, comfort, practicality and safety are important selection criteria.
We usually find two species in Working overalls: the overalls with straps and the overalls. Strappy overalls leave the upper body uncovered, while full body overalls cover the entire body from the shoulders to the legs.
For professionals working in more hazardous conditions, coveralls offer extra safety as they usually have a thermal insulation lining, are waterproof and flame retardant. On the other hand, overalls with straps offer more freedom of movement. Carpenters, painters, builders and plumbers prefer them.
Depending on your work environment, you can choose between full-length overalls and those with straps.
Choose the Right Vest or Work Jacket
Work jackets are another large category of professional clothing. In addition to a color that matches your brand, the jacket should offer you protection from the cold, but at the same time allow freedom of movement to do your work comfortably.
Choose between waterproof, windproof, thermally insulated, with multiple pockets to hold tools and accessories, hooded, double collar, built-in inner jacket, fleece lined for extra warmth, or with fluorescent details that reflect light for greater visibility on the road. Or all of these together.
Work vests can have similar features to work jackets, but hand movements are made even easier by leaving them uncovered.
For those who work outdoors, such as street sweepers at night, emergency workers and construction workers, it is necessary to wear reflective jackets or Hi-Vi work vest.
Consider the needs and environment of your work to choose the ideal overcoat or jacket that will give you safety and protection.
Protect yourself with the Right Work Shoes
Today they are on the market sophisticated work shoes, so that all professionals can do their work comfortably and safely. The most popular categories of work footwear in the Cyprus market are safety or non-safety shoes, overshoes, work boots and anatomical shoes.

Durability, safety, comfort and modern technology are the main features that a professional interested in work shoes should look for.
What Clothing Accessories Do You Need?
For a complete work outfit and adequate protection, you can combine all of the above with the appropriate accessories, such as isothermals, cap, socks, gloves, helmet, hats, ear and eye protection, kok.
For example, gloves are important for manual occupations that come into contact with high temperatures, sharp objects, harmful substances or chemicals. The use of noise-reducing glasses and headphones is essential for those who use drills or do welding.
