Idk what kind of job is this person supposed to do, but where I live, this is not "workwear".
Only place on Earth this is still considered workwear is USA, I would say.
But anywhere else, Jeans and boots are no longer workwear, just regular clothes.
Same for bomber jackets. They were army clothes, at some point in history, but not anymore.

Blue collar people don't wear heritage workwear retard. They wear carhartt, levi's, wrangler, dickies, whatever is at tractor supply. I'm an arborist and wear mountaineering boots and synthetic pants and shirts from arborwear or cotton spandex blend pants. On the rare occasion I'm on spikes all day I wear logger boots.

This is what I wear to work. Weather is shitty so no work today

I bought black mocs size 12 and they look pretty big on me, how close should my toes be/how tight should they fit?

[Anonymous No.15958775]

>>15958744
Boots should fit snugly but give you enough room in the toecap to bend your toes. How can you not tell if a shoe fits?

yeah blue jeans have been academic/fashionable since the cultural revolution of the sixties

[Anonymous No.15959096]

workwear as a style is dead, as a tradesman what I wear on the job is functional, not effay. Pic related is what my craft used to look like and what I wish we could return to. Americana is what remains

are you autistic? this is a fashion board. we're talking about a specific fashion aesthetic. we're not talking about what blue collar workers actually wear.

[Anonymous No.15959344]

>>15959302
sounds like a rich faggot lol. The aesthetic can't be replicated by trying hard and dropping on designer brands.

And I'm FROM a blue collar ass midwest town and I love designer fashion. Shut the fuck up you literally just don't know what you're talking about

Anyone of these people who's aesthetic you're trying to cop would immediately recognize that you're doing it fucking wrong lol

I work building stone patios and at a lumber mill, and wearing jeans always bending over theyre just too tight and heavy in the summer, simple 7$ track pants from walmart that are baggy are comfier and easier to move in

[Anonymous No.15959577]

>>15959570
too tight? are they buying skinny jeans or some shit

[Anonymous No.15959578]

>>15956095
it’s not workwear here either. people on here are just autistic. back in school we had a casual day called “jeans day” once a month. it’s the most normie piece of clothing in existence to us.

[Anonymous No.15959579]

>>15959577
yeah sometimes, its kinda shitty they wanna look good despite the first hour of the day you get messed up, but most dont like it because its just to heavy and cumbersome

Well, when you are exposed to paint, sparks, dust or else, you probably do not choose expensive clothing, but clothing with ok money/usefullness ratio, because you know, that your clothes probably will be damaged (tearing, oil stains, sparks from welding or dirt in general.)
So, long story short, wear and tear is increased, because you expose your clothes to such enviroment and you are using it every day.
So there is no reason to choose too fancy clothes. It should protect you, it should be comfortable and It should be reasonably priced.
So far what I have seen (and used), cargos and some textile workboots with protective elements are way to go. + Helmet/cap/faceshield and jacket (designed for your task... welding, electricity stuff etc.)

it's a style inspired by workwear of that era, it's not for actual work like sport casual is not really for sports

workwear

[Anonymous No.15961499]

If you aren’t able to walk into a mechanic shop/warehouse/back of a retail store/construction site and not get immediately noticed it’s not workwear

[Anonymous No.15961745]

>>15961376
Workwear changed, as everything else. So what specific era? 1920', 1950'... USA, GB or Germany?
I believe that even in US styles (cuts) of workwear changed trought the time.
OP could have had been more specific ihmo, if he wanted discussion in that way.
Maybe something like "workwear inspo of year XXXX" would done better.

Go to a thrift store and buy a weeks worth of loose fitting cargo and carpenter pants. They're much better to move around in than jeans. While you're there get some looser, thick cotton t shirts and a couple of hoodies. Don't play dress up, wear very comfortable clothing that you don't mind fucking up

imo the workwear is the most aesthetic when it's clearly not coordinated and it still has the most functionality
