Work trousers are hard wearing trousers designed to provide protection for both men and women in the workplace. Work trousers are made from durable material, usually a tough cotton polyester mix to offer protection against lacerations and penetrations from sharp objects. Reflective detailing on some trousers give the wearer extra visibility in the work place when working in high risk environments. Double and triple stitched seams in the trousers provide increased strength and longevity. Elasticated waistbands in the trousers offer extra comfort. Work trousers also feature pockets for carrying tools and equipment, some pockets or loops are designed to carry specific items such as hammer loops, ruler pockets, mobile phone pockets and pen pockets.
