And now, some things that you absolutely should think about when you aim to find the perfect painter’s trousers for yourself.
– When it comes to painter’s trousers, it is of the utmost importance to choose the right size, or rather; your size.
– Care about your knees. If you get your size right in combination with the knees fitting correctly (which means that the knee pads are used to the fullest) you will be able to get rid of many years of pain in your body.
– Depending on whether you work indoors or outdoors, you should choose the thickness of the trousers as needed. The thicker the trouser, the more warmth.
– The vast majority of Blåkläder painter’s trousers are 100 percent cotton, which is preferred by the vast majority of painters.
– Always making a mess? Choose a trouser with high absorbency. Our trousers have different absorbency, which is naturally an important part to keep in mind when choosing the garment that best suits you.
– Choose painter’s workwear that covers you. Think of them as protective garments.
– Wash your painter’s trousers from Blåkläder regularly. It makes them last even longer.
