Workwear

Our Workwear range covers durable clothing for commercial fishing, aquaculture and agriculture: oilskins, jackets, trousers, bib & braces, footwear and protective accessories built for full working days in wet, physically demanding conditions.

Workwear is a genuinely different product to leisure sailing clothing, built to a different brief: durability and ease of movement through repetitive physical work matter more here than the lighter weight and packability leisure sailors prioritise. Our Commercial Fishing range covers oilskins, gloves and protective gear specific to fishing crews, while Agriculture covers waterproof and protective workwear for farm use – related but not identical needs. Bib & Braces suit wet, messy work where a one-piece garment keeps water out better than a jacket-and-trousers combination, and Footwear covers work boots built for grip and protection on a working deck rather than casual comfort.

Sizing tends to run generous through this range since it’s designed to layer over thermals and other workwear – check size guides rather than assuming your usual clothing size, and expect to size up if you’re layering heavily for cold, wet conditions.

Frequently asked questions

What’s the difference between Commercial Fishing and Agriculture workwear?

Commercial Fishing covers oilskins, gloves and protective gear specific to fishing crews; Agriculture covers waterproof and protective workwear for farm and outdoor work – related in toughness but suited to different jobs.

When should I choose bib & braces over a jacket and trousers?

For wet, messy work where a one-piece garment keeps water out more effectively than a two-piece combination, particularly bending and lifting tasks where a jacket can ride up.

How should I size workwear?

Check the size guide rather than assuming your usual clothing size – workwear is often cut to layer over thermals and other workwear, so it runs more generously than leisure clothing.
