What is the difference between waterproof and water-resistant workwear?

Water-resistant workwear sheds light rain but eventually wets out. Waterproof workwear uses a sealed membrane to keep you dry in heavy rain. For NZ outdoor work, fully waterproof gear with sealed seams is recommended.

Which rain gear brands does KiwiWorkGear stock?

We stock Betacraft, Bison, Portwest, and other trusted NZ brands. Our range includes PVC rain jackets, waterproof shell jackets, rain pants, and full wet weather suits.

Does KiwiWorkGear stock hi-vis rain gear?

Yes — we stock hi-vis waterproof jackets and rain gear meeting AS/NZS 4602.1, suitable for traffic management, roadside maintenance, and outdoor work in all NZ weather conditions.

How do I maintain waterproof workwear performance?

Machine wash on gentle with technical wash. Avoid fabric softener. Tumble dry low to reactivate DWR coating. Re-apply DWR spray when water stops beading off the surface.
