Staying warm and dry is essential to keeping fit and healthy this Winter. When you’re out on a job, you need the right gear that can withstand whatever the weather throws at you. Here’s our advice for what every tradie needs to keep earning a living instead of being cooped up in bed with the flu throughout the cooler months.
Jackets
You’ll need a jacket to keep your upper body warm. But you want to get your hands on one that won’t compromise your movability so that you can get the job done without restrictions. Go for a lightweight, padded jacket with a relaxed fit. If you spend a lot of time outside or up on roofs, make sure to invest in one with superior waterproofing and wind breaking features. A zipped front and inner pockets are handy for carrying any items you might need. A jacket that comes with a detachable hood can also be of use for those days when it’s hosing down. We suggest hiking and extreme sports brands such as Patagonia or Mountain Designs.

Shirts
Layering up is the key to working outside in winter. Have a selection of breathable, long-sleeved cotton t-shirts and overshirts. These can be mixed and matched, and peeled off or put on depending on the weather. If you’re working in really cold climates, thermals are a great option to wear under your uniform. If uniformity isn’t an issue, you can always crack out your trusty old flanno, or grab one for cheap at Lowes.

Hoodies
For winter days a hoodie is a good investment to keep the chill at bay but also provides flex and movement. Go for a material that’s 100% cotton brushed fleece and a lined hood with an adjustable toggle. A hoodie with showerproof fabric and extra wadding for warmth can also fit the bill.

Trousers
It’s not Summer anymore, so long trousers or long cargo pants are in order. These should be durable and fit well for ease of movement. Tradie trousers come in all sorts of materials these days and can get quite hi-tech with ergonomic design, triple stitched seams and tuck away holster pockets. Of course the more bells and whistles on your trousers, the more you’ll pay. So something in a hardy but breathable fabric, that moves well will suffice. Hard Yakka is basically a tradies best friend when it comes to workwear. See if you can get tax refunds for your work gear and you’ll be laughing!

Boots
If you’re going to spend a decent amount of money on one item of clothing for your job, it should be your shoes. You’ll be hard pressed to find a workplace where these aren’t tax deductible, too. Decent footwear is essential all year round for both your posture and your safety. We always recommend steel-toed boots for tradies. When you’re working with equipment every day, you need to feel confident that your footwear can take you from a variety of worksites with ease. Steel Blue, Redback and Blundstone are a few hardy Aussie favourites.

Hats & Gloves
In winter the majority of body heat escapes through the top of your head, so make sure you have a cap or beanie to prevent heat loss on site. Fingers are also an extremity that take a hit during winter, so invest in some durable work gloves that lock in the warmth but allow free movement. Look for ones with reinforcement around the knuckles and full fingers.
