Choose garments designed for intense working conditions
The best way you can make sure your team’s workwear stays smart during intense winter shifts is by choosing high-quality garments with stylish and clever design features. Our Scruffs Worker Trousers, for example, include hard-wearing fabric and reinforced knee support to withstand demanding conditions, with a modern cut to keep your team looking presentable. Our Pro RTX High Visibility Full-Zip Fleece is similarly handy, featuring a stylish stand-up contrast collar and navy contrast trim in high-contact areas to make dirt harder to spot.
These clever design touches mean that your chosen garments can withstand wear and tear while still making sure your team is neat and appropriately representing your brand. We also recommend choosing premium waterproof workwear coats to keep clothing dry and clean, so that workers look professional when dealing with customers.
Take care when washing your personalised work clothing
Another way your team can make sure they’re keeping their personalised work clothing looking its best is by making sure they’re washing it correctly. Following general tips like separating garments by colour and fabric type, avoiding hot water and keeping tumble dryers on lower heat settings can help to keep clothing strong and stylish – we always recommend taking the time to check the website or the label for washing guidelines, helping to prevent premature wear and tear and fading.
Fortunately, many of our products are specifically designed to handle heavy-duty cleaning. Take, for example, our Stormtech Endurance HD Polo. Created with durability in mind, it has a number of handy features, like heavy-duty pique fabric and a snag-resistant finish. What’s more, it’s been tested to make sure it can withstand over 25 industrial washes without losing quality, so your workers can look tidy and presentable for even longer.
Make sure you have spares!
The unfortunate fact is that accidents like rips and stains happen, especially in physically demanding jobs and during winter weather. This season can be particularly harsh on fabrics like cotton and synthetics, leading to garments wearing down and becoming more prone to tearing. With that in mind, we always recommend having spares on hand, ensuring your team can keep working safely and comfortably without delay should a piece of clothing become unwearable. Having multiple options also means your workers can rotate their wardrobe, which can help their workwear last longer. With our Winter Workwear Bundle, it’s never been easier to order backups to see your team through the cold, wet months!
Consider what kind of personalisation will work best
At City Workwear, we’ve seen firsthand the importance of personalised workwear. Providing a sense of belonging for employees and conveying professionalism to customers, it’s a great way of creating a cohesive brand identity. All of our personalisation methods are guaranteed to add a vibrant, outstanding finish to your chosen garments, though some techniques are better suited to intensive winter environments. Embroidered workwear, for example, is especially perfect for creating a hard-wearing finish, and can easily hold up against the rigours of demanding work environments and harsh weather conditions. Transfer printing is another great personalisation method, and is durable enough to withstand regular washing and wearing. Our team is always happy to offer expert advice and provide recommendations for your unique job roles, so you can make sure your personalised work clothing stays neat and stylish all year round.
Those are the basics covered! If you’re trying to keep your team looking and feeling great through winter and beyond with some new personalised workwear, we’re here to help. With a 100% positive rating on Trustpilot, we’re proud to offer free delivery on orders over £150 and an average turnaround time of just five working days. Interested?
