What We Like About These Pants

WORKIT's own product page makes a direct durability-for-life claim here — the inherent flame resistant fibres are stated to "guarantee protection for the life of the garment," not just for a fixed number of washes, which matters for a garment that's going to be worn and laundered constantly on site.
