Product Overview
The C815 Kneepad Coverall is a staple of professional workwear, meticulously engineered for those who require a balance between physical protection and ease of movement. This medium-weight garment is crafted from Kingsmill polycotton, a fabric renowned for its resilience in demanding environments. Featuring a concealed zip front, it provides a clean, professional appearance while ensuring that the fastening mechanism is shielded from debris and potential snags during the working day.
Key Features
Integrated kneepad pockets allow for the insertion of protective pads, significantly reducing strain and discomfort when working at floor level for extended periods.
The action back design provides an increased range of motion, ensuring the fabric does not pull or restrict movement during overhead tasks or reach-intensive work.
A concealed zip front offers a sleek finish and acts as a barrier, protecting the zip from environmental wear and preventing it from scratching sensitive surfaces.
Multiple secure pockets, including several strategically placed for tools, offer ample storage to keep your essentials close at hand and organised.
Design & Performance
The core of this coverall’s performance lies in its fabric composition: a robust blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton. This medium-weight material has been fully pre-shrunk, ensuring that the coverall retains its shape and fit even after repeated industrial laundering. The Kingsmill fabric also boasts superior dye retention, meaning the deep black colour remains sharp and professional rather than fading into a tired grey after a few weeks on site.
The balance of fibres ensures the garment is breathable enough for indoor workshop use while remaining sturdy enough to withstand the rigours of an outdoor construction site. It is a substantial garment that feels dependable without being unnecessarily cumbersome.
Why No Customisation?
This specific iteration of the C815 coverall is provided as a non-customised garment to facilitate rapid dispatch and to ensure the technical integrity of the Kingsmill fabric remains uncompromised. This makes it an ideal choice for businesses requiring high-quality, professional protection immediately, without the lead times often associated with bespoke embroidery or print services.
Use Cases
Given its versatile design and protective features, this coverall is an excellent choice for a wide variety of trades. It is particularly well-suited for mechanics and plumbers who frequently work in restricted spaces, as well as electricians and construction professionals who require reliable, everyday protection. Its durability also makes it a sensible option for tree surgeons and general maintenance staff who need a garment that can keep up with a heavy workload.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider the layers you intend to wear underneath. As a medium-weight garment, it provides ample protection on its own, but it is cut to comfortably accommodate thermal base layers during the winter months. To get the most out of the action back feature, ensure the fit is not overly tight across the shoulders, allowing for a full range of movement during physical tasks.
Caring for your product
To maintain the longevity and performance of your coverall, we recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 60°C. This temperature is effective at removing heavy dirt and grease while ensuring the structural integrity of the polycotton blend remains intact.
You should avoid the use of bleach at all costs. Harsh bleaching agents can break down the polyester fibres and lead to premature wear or significant discolouration. The garment is suitable for a normal tumble dry cycle, which helps to maintain the fabric's soft handle, but it should not be dry cleaned as the solvents used can be detrimental to the fabric's long-term durability.
