Are you wasting money on “workwear” that isn’t actually built for work? In this video I break down your kit piece by piece and show you exactly where to skimp and where to spend on work boots, pants, jackets, base layers, PPE and more. If you work construction, electrical, carpentry, HVAC, plumbing, or any other trade, this will help you build a workwear system that actually holds up on the jobsite instead of just looking good on Instagram. What I cover in this video: Cheap vs expensive work boots and why your feet are not the place to save money The truth about work pants and which fabrics are worth paying for Jackets, rain gear, and base layers that keep you warm and dry all day Which PPE and safety gear is worth upgrading for comfort The shirts, hoodies, hats and hi-vis where you can go budget and be fine If you’re a tradesman trying to stretch your paycheck, this is a no-BS workwear buyer’s guide based on real jobsite use, not fashion. -Coffee With Carl Newsletter: https://rebrand.ly/CoffeeWithCarl - Patreon: https://bit.ly/3CgauCW -Merch: https://exlsv.com/collections/carl-murawski -Website: https://www.carlmurawski.com -Instagram: http://bit.ly/2qIHzaB -Discord: https://discord.gg/RrDrYkAJxH -My other channel: https://www.youtube.com/@CoffeeWithCarl1 #Carlmurawski #tradesman #workwear BEST OF THE BEST (This list is continually updated) BUDGET WORKWEAR -Work Boots: https://ktku.co/3h -Work Pants: https://carhartt.pxf.io/nXy3r9 -Work Jacket: https://carhartt.pxf
