Tradie Workwear: Then and Now
From rugged drill shirts and basic cotton trousers to modern high-visibility, moisture-wicking workwear, Australian tradie clothing has had a major transformation. Here’s how workwear has evolved to keep up with the demands of today’s job sites.
Workwear Then: Tough but Heavy
- 100% cotton drill shirts — solid but hot and stiff
- Basic trousers with little to no reinforcement
- Limited colours, no hi-vis compliance standards
Workwear Now: Site-Ready Technology
- Hi-Vis Fabrics: Bright, reflective clothing that meets AS/NZS safety standards
- Breathable Mesh Panels: Designed to keep tradies cooler under pressure
- Stretch-Fit Trousers: Flexibility where you need it most for climbing, bending, and lifting
- Water-Resistant Softshells: Lightweight layers that handle Australia’s unpredictable weather
