Stay Dry Through Every Season with the Best Waterproof Workwear

Complaining about the weather comes so naturally to the average British person that people from other countries rightly regard it as part of our national character. Looking at it objectively, we actually have it pretty good — we don't have to put up with the really dangerous types of weather (such as tornadoes, hurricanes and showers of baseball-sized hailstones) that are regular occurrences in other parts of the world.

That said, we definitely DO have to put up with a lot of rain. There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to when the heavens might decide to open and nobody is ever surprised to be caught in a downpour whether it is spring, summer, autumn or winter. Always inconvenient, rain often affects our daily lives and makes things difficult, preventing us from being able to work or relax outdoors. 

On the surface, wearing waterproof clothing would seem to be the immediate solution but it is not quite as simple as that; the quality of such clothing can make a huge difference and there are many potential problems associated with making the wrong choice. 

The most obvious problem arises if the 'waterproof' clothing or footwear is not actually waterproof, with the result that the clothes you are wearing beneath end up wet despite you having taken the right precautions. This can occur for many reasons, from the use of inferior fabrics to the failure of crucial fastenings like zips, buttons and even seams and stitches. Another common issue is lack of breathability meaning that, even though you stay dry, you feel hot, stuffy and generally uncomfortable.

Here at Tiger Safety, we have over 190 items of waterproof and water-resistant workwear and footwear always in stock. Each and every item has been chosen for its proven quality, giving you the confidence you need to brave the rain whatever season it happens to be. 

We'd like to take this opportunity to showcase just one of these many items: Woodland 'Bailey' country boots. Designed to be 100% waterproof, these superlative boots incorporate highly-effective Viltex PE membranes, which allow the feet to breathe while ensuring that they stay completely dry. As stylish as they are practical, the premium-quality boots are made using durable waxy leather in a rich and attractive Dark Brown colour.

Woodland 'Bailey' boots offer a slim fit and are fitted with robust zips to ensure they can be securely fastened. Textile linings, which provide extra warmth and comfort where you need it most, complete this superb footwear. Available in a full range of UK sizes from 3 - 10. 

One highly-satisfied Tiger Safety customer who purchased these exceptional boots is Chris Raynor, who gave them a glowing five-star review. Commenting on the footwear, Chris said: "Amazing value for money, they appear to be really well made, with good quality materials. I also think they look very stylish. The uppers are a thick, waxed leather which repels water. Inside they have a warm, comfy nylon lining and a soft, padded sole, which feels lovely, almost springy. All in all, I love them!"
