Collection: Painter's Clothing
Painter's clothing is workwear designed for painters and plasterers. In many ways, it resembles regular workwear. High-quality painter's clothing offers a great combination of durability, protection, and comfort, tailored to the varied conditions in which painters work. The main difference between painter's clothing and regular workwear is the color: painter's workwear is predominantly white.

Why is Painter's Clothing White?
The primary reason painter's clothing is white relates to reflection. If painters wear other colors, it can reflect onto the wall, making it difficult to see if the paint is applied evenly. Historically, when painters often mixed their own paints, there was a risk that colored clothing could affect the paint’s color.
Another reason is that painters frequently work with white paint. White clothing makes paint splatters less visible than they would be on darker or colorful clothing.
