What work jacket is suitable for winter?

To quote the classics, does it have to be cold when it's winter? Not necessarily. It shouldn't even be, especially when you work in difficult conditions and need extra protection against the cold. Our assortment includes both insulated and softshell work jackets. Regardless of which jacket model you choose, we encourage you to wear layers. Then you will surely be warm, even in the coldest frost. We offer thermoactive underwear as the first layer. Next comes the middle layer and the last layer is the top layer, our winter jackets. We will tell you what elements of the work jacket you should pay attention to in order for it to fulfill its task in 100%.

How to choose a winter jacket for work?

Pay attention to the details listed below. Thanks to them, the jacket is reliable in all circumstances.

• Hood - in winter you can't move without it! If it has a size adjustment, e.g. straps in the front part, you can adjust it even better to the head. If it is detachable or hidden in the collar - it is an additional advantage, because when it is not needed, you can easily remove it or hide it.
• Collar - must be high, preferably with a stand-up collar. Thanks to this, you will not be aired when you forget the chimney or a scarf.
• Back of the jacket - preferably extended. Then your back and kidneys are covered even when you are working in a kneeling position or bending down for something.
• Cuffs - should be adjustable, then they will protect your hands from the wind. Some jackets, in addition to adjustment, also have slightly extended cuffs, which is not a necessity, but an additional advantage.
• Waterproof and vapor permeable - you often expose yourself to unfavorable weather conditions at work, so the jacket must protect against rain and snow, but at the same time it should breathe so that you do not get too warm. Fortunately, many manufacturers draw inspiration from sports and trekking clothing brands, so a good winter jacket will work even in active work.
• Reflective elements - they are essential for your safety. Regardless of whether you work after dark or just leave for work in poor visibility.
