2016 survey of safety professionals that were asked “What do you think are the main reasons for noncompliance with PPE protocols?”
Waterproof garments keep weather out, while wind-blocking helps maintain warmth. Breathable fabrics and moisture wicking technologies prevent overheating and allowing perspiration to escape, keeping you comfortable and dry inside and out.
Look for breathable and moisture wicking to reduce heat loss without overheating.
It’s important to stay dry because moisture against the skin contributes to an increased rate of heat loss. According to the CDC, hypothermia can occur at mild temperatures (above 40 degrees F) “if a person becomes chilled from rain, sweat, or submersion in cold water.”
Well-fitting garments that are not skin tight provide better insulation due to air gaps, which help keep you warm without overheating. Light layers provide the ability to adjust to changing temperatures through the day by removing layers, versus one heavy and bulky garment.
Sweatshirts or fleece jackets work to keep warm air in and can be easily removed as conditions change. Zip fronts are more practical because they can be unzipped to release hot air as you work up a sweat.
