Bisley Workwear - Forestry

Forestry clothing has two jobs that no other trade combines quite this way: be seen in an environment specifically designed to hide you, and survive constant snagging. Scrub, standing timber and slash break up a human outline better than almost anything, which is why visibility here is not a site formality — it is how the machine operator knows where you are.

So this range is hi vis heavy, and most of it is taped for day and night, because harvesting runs to shift work and early starts in poor light. Ripstop makes up a larger share of this range than of any other trade page, and that is the other half of the brief: ripstop stops a snag on a branch or a wire from becoming a tear across a whole panel, which is the way most forestry clothing actually dies. Wet weather shells and lined layers run deep, because plantation and native forest work is wet, cold and does not stop for either.

Worth being explicit about scope. This is general forestry workwear — shirts, pants, hi vis and weather protection. It is not chainsaw protective clothing. Cut-resistant chaps, trousers and jackets are a separate class of PPE tested to their own standard, and nothing on this page substitutes for them. If you are running a saw, buy chainsaw-rated protection specifically and check the rating against the work.
