When thinking about your next workwear purchase, ensuring you have clothing that fits is important. Following these simple measuring tips will help you find your fit so you can get the very best out of your workwear.

T-shirts / Polos / Jackets / Sweaters

How to measure: For mens garments, measure chest width horizontally at the widest point. For women, measure around the bust at widest point.

Work Trousers

Trousers are measured around the waistband, and the leg inseam. However it is important to take into consideration that some brands do run their sizes slightly different from others, so make sure to allow for this. With Snickers Work trousers, their series 3 and series 6 trousers differ slightly in sizing, so always check the attribute field for correct sizing.

Overalls / Bib Overalls

Although both referred to as overalls, full body overalls and bib overalls vary in measurements.

When measuring full body overalls, typically the chest is measured at the widest point, alongside either the full body height, or leg inseam.

Bib overalls are measured the same way you would measure a pair of trousers, measuring the waist and the leg inseam.

A workwear collection which has earned Fristads a Red Dot Award in the Design Concept category; the Fristads Green range is the very first workwear collection on the market to carry an environmental product declaration (EPD).

This helps to highlight Fristads ongoing efforts towards altering their manufacture and supply chains, and showcases their commitment towards lowering their overall environmental footprint. The EPD also allows more consumers to pick their work clothing ethically whilst simultaneously helping the environment.

To achieve this, the Green range from Fristads uses advanced manufacturing techniques aimed to reduce the sewing time of products and minimalise wasted fabric. In addition to this, the dying process and materials are also modified in order to use less water. Any wasted material left from the manufacturing process is then recycled, and any surplus is used to craft elbow and kneepads.  

Featuring not just a clean and simple design with minimalist details, the collection is characterised by its unique process in which the entire supply chain carries this awareness. 

By using a special folding technique Fristads avoid the use of plastic bags and make optimum use of transportation capacity.
