So, you are undertaking a renovation. Just because you will be ripping out appliances or laying down new floor doesn’t mean that you can’t do it in style! Combine the practical with the fashionable and put these wardrobe items on your list right from the jump…
Comfortable Long Pants
Regardless of the season, if you are going to get down & dirty with a home renovation, long pants are necessary to cover up your legs for protection. Lululemon has some great options for both men and women.
Comfortable Long Sleeves
Like long pants, long sleeves are also a good idea to wear when working on the project. Just make sure to wear a t-shirt that is a little loose (to allow you to comfortably move) but not too much that the shirt will get in your way. ONNO makes great long sleeve t-shirts for both men and women. A bonus is that they are made from bamboo and sustainable.
A Fashionable Dust Mask
A dust mask is important to wear for obvious reasons. A great and stylish mask – that not only keeps out the dust but is effective against other allergens, smog and pollutants – is the Air/Num Urban Face Mask!
Protective Eye Goggles & Earmuffs
To protect your eyes, try NoCry’s Safety Glasses. With a lightweight construction and wraparound design, they offer ample protection while keeping you comfortable. For your ears? Exposure to any noise above 85 decibels has the ability to be hazardous to your ears, a level that is probably quieter than you might think. In the case of earmuffs, focus on safety not style, and go with the 3M PELTOR Optime.
Gloves
Gloves are tricky. You need a pair that won’t tear, rip or become ruined in the first few hours. You also need to make sure that they are super protective. Up to 60% of hand injuries could be eliminated with proper hand protection. This is where CLC Custom Leathercraft 125S comes onto the scene. They are protective, comfortable and flexible.
