im a snickers ----! i wear their ruffwork trousers which compliment my slender legs with kneepads because im soft. I also have a company polo and sweatshirt that make me look like a lost refugee. When i am working for myself i have a snickers hoodie and an old windproof climbing jacket. I always wear safety boots because i value my toes and also they provide support on ladders. You Northerners must have soft feet or low pain threshold, my CAT Holton in tan have served me well. I have two pairs, one with steel midsole for industrial sites and a set without for house bashing.

In truth,never been interested in liveried,spammed up schmutter...
Always Redwing boots,Snickers or Blaklader pants...Musto thermals in Winter,all else a lottery.

Admit to looking (and perhaps,acting;)) like a non gorge ...had many,many incidents,where company directors and managers,have asked me to leave or just said "...we weigh in our own scrap,here pal..." only to be sat opposite me,in a boardroom an hour later,being instructed by their company insurance mouth-piece,to "listen carefully to this man..."

Two very important lessons,to learn early on in a working life,are to keep your feet dry,and never,ever,judge a book,by it's cover :)

One of the first thing I remember my Dad telling me " you never know who you are talking too". I have seen quite a few falling foul of that one too.

Fire resistant boiler suits, great in the winter. Not so great any other time!
