Recommendations from our Unishore Expert
Working close to electrical hazards or heat sources? This sweater offers protection that meets strict safety standards, so you can focus on the job instead of the risks around you. The fabric is designed to shield your skin from radiant, convective and contact heat, which makes it a reliable base layer for tasks where heat exposure is part of the day. The ribbed cuffs and hem keep warmth in and help the sweater stay in place while you move. For extra warmth on colder days, layer it under a flame retardant jacket, and keep the front zip open or closed depending on how hot the work gets.
