Why it works

Built for site kit and stain resistance

EN ISO 20471 Class 2, 50-wash certified

Reflective tape keeps its Class 2 hi-vis rating after 50 washes.

Eleven pockets, holster-style

Holster-style hanging thigh pockets, a double rule pocket and swing-away tool pockets keep kit organised and accessible.

Metal-detector friendly

Non-magnetic, nickel and ferrous free construction with no exposed metal parts, for security-screened and food-processing sites.

Texpel stain-resistant finish

Repels oil, water and grime so the trouser stays looking new for longer.

Frequently asked questions

Is this trouser suitable for rail industry work?

The orange colourway meets RIS-3279-TOM for rail industry work. The yellow/black colourway does not carry this compliance, so check which colourway your site requires.

Why does it matter that this is metal-detector friendly?

The trouser is non-magnetic, nickel and ferrous free with no exposed metal parts, so it will not trigger metal detectors - useful for food-processing or security-screened sites.

How many washes does the hi-vis rating survive?

The reflective tape is certified to EN ISO 20471 Class 2 after 50 washes, so it holds its rating through regular industrial laundering.

What are the holster pockets for?

The hanging thigh pockets sit outside the main leg, giving quick access to tools or kit without digging through a standard pocket.

Is the fabric stain-resistant?

Yes, the Texpel SOS finish repels oil, water and grime, so the trouser stays looking new for longer between washes.

Can the leg length be adjusted?

Yes, the leg length is extendable from 31 to 33 inches, and the side elastic waist adds further comfort.

Can I add my company logo or embroidery?

Yes, embroidery and logo printing are both available on this style. Ask about trade-account pricing for bulk branded orders.
