Workwear

[WetSaw]

I'm in shorts most of the year. "Combat" style ones with loads of pockets. My ears don't work with the pencil thing!

Bri...we allowed shorts ?..

I've got a pair of three quarter length trousers that I wear at this time of year, just an old pair of trousers chopped off below the pad pockets, I can't work without pads, even when I'm doing walls. So yes, shorts are ok as long as they are embroidered with your company logo and are BS approved

I use a foam mat to kneel on. My alpro knee pads make my knees sore when they're on bare skin

I use alpro kneel cushion.....wouldn't be without it..

Does it not get annoying having to keep moving it around with you? Or is it something that you just get used to? I'd end up starting off with it and leaving it behind!

There very comfortable..

They're genius Andy - just ordered a pair

I use 2 so as I move along I keep moving the spare one ahead of me so there's always something to kneel on. I might try the Alpro one as their knee pads are great

It's a bit of a pain when doing a floor but ideal for a bathroom doing the bottom few rows of tiles when you don't move about to much.

last year I bought 10 pairs of work were trousers from aldi at 8,99 a pair ive only binned 3 to date there incredibly good value for money. I'm with bri , hate trackies, so un professional .chave tiling .com

i wear proper work trousers & waste 20 minutes per day. too many pockets not enough pencils. first thing with a new pair is to cut those flappy external pockets off. considering asking wife to sew up some of the other ones too.

I don't like trakkies and I won't do kitchen splash backs, I'm not painting a very good picture of myself

Feel bad now. Just done said back splash in trakkies........... In my defence I'm sick of work wear splitting. Last pair of site ones from screwfix were to tight so couldn't move around well when plastering. Tried tesco jeans and found a pair a job expensive as they would fail to. I did have a hoody on in matching colour with my biz name on. So maybe I can be forgiven.?
