Keep warm this winter
12 November 2015
Dickies workwear products are tested in the harshest environments to ensure comfort.
Dickies hooded tops, or hoodies, comprise full zipped or over the head designs; various printed designs are available in core workwear colours and fabrics.
A Dickies fleece offers the wearer suitable warmth in cold working conditions. The Dickies Eisenhower fleece is rugged and warm, with woolly sherpa lining, knitted cuffs and hem and zipping right up to cover the neck.
Dickies coats and work jackets are made to suit varying levels of cold, wet and wintery working conditions, with lightweight waterproof clothing for those days out in the rain, as well as thick, padded winter work coats to combat the cold.
Dickies has introduced a new two-tone range which has been designed to sit across all Dickies collections. Features include reflective piping, and high quality functional fabrics.
The new parka jacket is a key piece in the collection: key features include a removable hood, removable fur and a tail hem for extra back warmth. Double access lower pockets keep the hands warm when not working and the nylon taslon fabric makes this parka waterproof to 1000mm, durable but also light to wear. Inside the coat there is a Sherpa collar lining to keep the neck warm, along with Dickies branded tape details.
Dickies winter accessories include: beanie hats and its Dickies Trapper hat which offers a high degree of warmth in cold working conditions. The acrylic fur lining is said to provide maximum heat retention and comfort and coverage of the ears from the side flaps. Both hats are also available in hi vis.
The Dickies Thermal gloves, suitable for working outdoors, have a thinsulate lining which helps to keep hands warm. Dickies half-finger gloves are an option where precision may be required. The pouch that covers the top half of the fingers is removable.
For footwear, Dickies offers a range of boots with the Medway safety hiker, which is thinsulate insulated and water resistant. The heel is energy absorbing, easing the punishment of busy feet on rough ground.
