Making Workwear Decisions a Little Easier
Workwear sounds simple until you start comparing garment weights, fabrics, fits, decoration methods, brands, safety requirements, quantities and dozens of apparently similar products.
Michaels Workwear has more than 35 years of experience helping businesses work through those choices. This Advice section brings together practical information designed to answer common questions before, during and after a workwear purchase.
We cover everything from choosing between embroidery and print to deciding which garments suit particular working environments, planning bulk requirements and making repeat ordering easier.

Advice That Starts with the Job, Not Just the Product
There is rarely one garment that is automatically right for every customer. A polo used by a warehouse team has different demands from one worn at a trade show. A jacket for somebody outdoors all day needs to do a different job from one worn between a car and customer premises.
Our advice is built around those practical differences. Michaels Workwear looks at who will wear the product, how it will be used, what branding is required, how often it will be reordered and what budget the customer is working with.
That helps us recommend products for a reason rather than simply presenting a long list of garments and leaving the customer to work it out alone.
The Sort of Things We Can Help With
Which decoration method will produce the best result for the garment, artwork and intended use?
What fabric, weight, fit and style makes sense for the people who will actually wear it?
When does it make sense to buy a larger annual requirement rather than placing several smaller orders?
How can approved ranges, saved branding and ordering portals simplify future purchases?
