Work jackets

A work jacket needs to suit both the conditions outside and the movements of the job. Compare sleeve length, adjustment points, pocket access and space for layers. Try the fit with the clothing you expect to wear beneath it, especially if you regularly reach overhead or work from a seated position.

Water-resistant and waterproof descriptions are not interchangeable, so check the exact product information. Hoods, cuffs and closures matter alongside the fabric. If a task requires a particular protective specification, choose from documented products that meet that requirement.

For sleeveless layering, see bodywarmers and gilets. Use our hi-vis guide when visibility is part of the workplace specification.
