What work jacket is best for NZ winters?

For cold NZ winters, a layering system works best: a merino or synthetic baselayer, a fleece or quilted mid-layer, and a waterproof outer shell. KiwiWorkGear stocks all three layers.

Does KiwiWorkGear stock hi-vis jackets?

Yes — we stock hi-vis jackets meeting AS/NZS 4602.1 in waterproof, softshell, and fleece-lined styles. Available in Class D/N for traffic management and roadside work.

How do I care for a waterproof work jacket?

Machine wash on gentle with technical wash. Avoid fabric softener. Tumble dry low to reactivate the DWR coating. Re-apply DWR spray if water no longer beads on the surface.

Which jacket brands does KiwiWorkGear stock?

We stock Portwest, Bisley, Bison, and Betacraft — covering waterproof shells, softshells, hi-vis bombers, and fleece-lined work jackets for all NZ conditions.
