The Portwest DX4 Softshell Trousers with detachable holster pockets are the ultimate softshell work trousers for professionals working in changing weather conditions. These advanced trousers offer excellent protection against wind and rain, while the flexible materials ensure maximum freedom of movement during active work. Thanks to the well-thought-out design, this model is ideal for intensive daily use in construction, installation technology, and logistics.
For which working conditions are these Portwest softshell work trousers most suitable?
These softshell work trousers are specifically designed for professionals working outdoors in unpredictable weather conditions. Thanks to the windproof and water-repellent fabric with a waterproof rating of WP 8000mm, you stay dry during light rain showers, while the breathable performance of MVP 3000g/m2/24hr prevents you from overheating.
The eco-conscious finish ensures that water droplets bead directly off the surface. This makes the trousers extremely suitable for construction sites, assembly jobs, and outdoor services where reliable protection and a professional appearance are required.
What does the EN 14404 standard mean for these Portwest DX450 trousers?
The EN 14404 standard on the Portwest DX450 indicates that these trousers, in combination with S156 kneepads, are certified for Type 2 Level 0 knee protection. This means your knees are effectively protected when working on a flat surface.
The knee pockets are adjustable in two positions so that the protectors are always at the right height. This prevents physical strain and injuries during prolonged kneeling work, which is essential for pavers, installers, and floor layers.
With fourteen storage pockets, zip-off holster pockets, and an elastic waistband, these trousers offer optimal comfort, while the pre-shaped knees and reflective piping provide extra flexibility and visibility.
