Why autumn is the best time to upgrade your waterproof workwear

Here at City Workwear, we understand how much of a difference personalised workwear can make to your business. We also know that what works in summer and spring won’t be as helpful in autumn and winter, so adapting your clothing throughout the year is key. Here’s why autumn is the perfect time to upgrade your workwear!

Keep your team comfortable and adaptable 

Autumn might bring colourful leaves and fun holidays like Bonfire Night, but it can be glum in terms of the weather. If you’re working outside, you need to be warm and dry – and that’s where we come in! For a reliable workwear coat, something like our Stormtech Vertex jacket is perfect. Not only is it highly waterproof and windproof, but it also offers 10,000g/m² breathability and stretch fabric to enable unrestricted movement, so that your team stays comfortable at all times.

Autumn is also unpredictable. One day it can be dry and mild, and the next thing you know, it’s wet and windy. Help your team easily adapt to changing autumn days with a mixture of garments like breathable thermal vests and coats, so they can add and remove layers as needed. 

Maintain safety by outfitting your team appropriately

It’s important to bear in mind the impact inadequate autumn clothing can have on safety. It goes beyond simple discomfort – a lack of proper insulation can also lead to potentially serious illnesses like hypothermia. But autumn doesn’t just bring cold and wet weather – it also means darker days. Our custom hi vis clothing is great for keeping you warm and visible as the days get dimmer, so that your team can stay seen and safe.

When upgrading your autumn workwear, remember: don’t just focus on larger items like coats when accessories are equally as important. Autumn brings muddy and icy ground that can cause falls and injuries, which is why waterproof, slip-resistant footwear is a must in wetter months. Items like mittens are also vital, especially if handling tools that require a steady and dexterous touch. Upgrading your autumn workwear keeps your team protected, whatever the weather. 

Ensure productivity with proper autumn workwear

To work efficiently, you need to be able to concentrate – and how can you do that if you’re cold and wet? Rethinking your workwear with autumn in mind means that your team’s number one priority is getting the job done, not trying to survive the weather. Choosing clothing that prioritises insulation without becoming bulky is also a must for productivity, as restrictive clothing can really slow down your work. 

Anyone who has ever come in from a cold, wet autumn day will have experienced the struggle of trying to unzip a coat with freezing hands. Without suitable workwear, your dexterity is compromised, with hands becoming stiff and uncooperative. Waterproof gloves allow your team to keep working efficiently in even the most unpleasant of autumn’s weather. 

A great opportunity for a refresh!

Personalised waterproof workwear doesn’t just have a practical function. Here at City Workwear, we’ve seen just how much clothing can promote your brand, inspire team spirit, and create a sense of professionalism – so why not revamp your look and protect your team all in one go? With the gloomier months looming ahead, a refresh could be just what you need to give your team a boost.
