When you’re working outdoors, quality clothing is essential. Warm clothes in the winter and cool ones in the summer make it easier to concentrate on the job and do your best work. As the weather cools off, you can make sure your construction crew is comfortable and safe with custom apparel from Winning Edge Graphics in Alexandria, MN. Here, the team discusses a few essential elements that belong in every work uniform.

Visible Colors

Custom apparel for construction workers needs to be designed with safety in mind. Highly visible colors and reflective fabrics are essential to attract attention and prevent accidents. Winning Edge Graphics’ clothing suppliers offer a wide range of products in safety colors like yellow, orange, and green, so your team can be seen from a distance. Their high-visibility outerwear features reflective tape that allows motorists to detect workers on the road.

Layers

Layering your custom apparel is an important safety step for crews working outside. Each piece of clothing serves a purpose. The item closest to your skin should be a light garment that will wick away moisture. Polyester and wool are the best options for this layer. In the middle, wear a thick, insulating garment such as a fleece jacket. The outer layer must be waterproof and durable to resist the elements. Winning Edge Graphics provides a range of options for every layer of your construction crew’s cold weather gear and will personalize each item with embroidery or screen printing for a professional touch.

Fit Options

Buying your crew’s customized clothing in one size might sound convenient, but an improper fit can be a hazard. Tight clothes can restrict workers’ range of motion, while excess fabric might get caught on equipment. Fitted gear ensures your crew will look professional and be safe when they’re on the job. Winning Edge Graphics sources its activewear from skilled manufacturers whose products are designed for safety and mobility.

The team at Winning Edge Graphics is ready to help you find the perfect combination of comfort and safety features for your construction crew’s custom apparel. Not only will they provide what you need to stay warm and safe this winter, but their personalized clothing and other custom promotional products will also draw attention to your business.
