Recommendations from our Unishore Expert

This bib and brace overall stands out for professionals who need genuine all-round protection. The robust cotton-rich construction with integrated carbon fibre offers the durability you'd expect from premium workwear, whilst the flame-retardant properties remain effective throughout the garment's lifespan. The reflective striping on the legs means you're visible from all angles, which matters when you're moving around site. The elasticated shoulder straps sit comfortably during long shifts, and the two-position knee pockets are genuinely useful if you're alternating between different work tasks. The snap button back pocket keeps items secure when you're bending or moving, and the messing zip won't let you down. Consider pairing this with flame-retardant socks and appropriate footwear to complete your protection strategy.
