Product Overview
The Iona Safety Combat Trousers are a robust and versatile solution for professionals who require a balance between everyday utility and enhanced visibility. Designed for the rigours of the modern workplace, these trousers combine the classic combat style with practical safety features, making them a staple choice for those working in environments where being seen is as important as being protected. The generous fit ensures that movement is never restricted, providing comfort throughout the longest of shifts.
Key Features
- Integrated knee pad pockets allow for the insertion of protective pads, shielding your joints during tasks that require kneeling on hard surfaces.
- Enhanced visibility accents are strategically placed to ensure you remain noticeable in low-light conditions, conforming to EN 17353 Type B2 standards.
- Multiple combat-style pockets provide ample storage for tools and personal items, keeping essential equipment within easy reach.
- The fabric is fully pre-shrunk, meaning these trousers will maintain their shape and size even after repeated industrial or domestic laundering.
- Superior dye retention ensures the professional black finish remains vibrant, resisting the fading that often plagues lower-quality workwear.
Design & Performance
Constructed from Kingsmill Polycotton, a sophisticated blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, these trousers are engineered for high performance. This medium-weight fabric offers the perfect compromise between the breathability of cotton and the hard-wearing durability of polyester. The result is a garment that can withstand the friction and stress of manual labour without sacrificing the wearer's comfort.
The design focuses on longevity. Reinforced seams and high-quality construction mean these trousers won't fall apart on the job. The fabric's technical composition is specifically chosen to provide a professional appearance that lasts, making them a cost-effective choice for both independent tradespeople and large-scale uniform contracts.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The stable surface of the Kingsmill fabric makes these trousers an excellent candidate for customisation. For a professional and authoritative appearance, we recommend embroidery on the thigh or pocket area. This is ideal for company logos or staff names, providing a textured, premium finish that withstands heavy wear.
If you require larger, more prominent branding, our print services are equally effective. Printing is well-suited for bold designs that need to stand out. Our expert team in Telford, established in 1976, manages all customisation in-house to ensure your branding is applied with precision and care, maintaining the integrity of the garment.
Use Cases
These trousers are ideally suited for warehouse staff, logistics personnel, and site-based tradespeople who do not require full high-visibility certification but benefit from enhanced visibility. They are particularly effective in environments with moving machinery or vehicles where being seen is a safety priority.

Practical Advice
The generous fit of these trousers allows for ease of movement, but if you prefer a closer fit, you may wish to consider this when selecting your size. They are designed to be layered comfortably with thermal base layers during colder months without becoming restrictive.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and safety certifications of these trousers, we recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 60°C. This ensures a deep clean to remove site grime while maintaining the integrity of the polyester-cotton fibres.
Do not use bleach when cleaning this garment. Bleach can degrade the fabric's strength and cause significant damage to the enhanced visibility elements and the dye.
When drying, use a low tumble dry setting or, preferably, drip line dry. Excessive heat in a tumble dryer can lead to unnecessary wear on the fabric and potential shrinkage over time. Drip drying helps preserve the garment's shape.
If ironing is required, use a maximum soleplate temperature of 150°C. This keeps the trousers looking sharp without risking damage to the synthetic fibres. For a deeper clean, these trousers can also be professionally dry cleaned using standard processes.
