Heavy-duty Waterproof Farm Clothing for 12-hour Days in British Weather

Heavy-duty waterproof jackets, lightweight rain jackets, warm layers and chainsaw protective trousers: tough, breathable workwear made to keep you dry, warm and protected all day.

Daily Investment

Heavy Duty Waterproof Farm Jackets

On the farm, rainwear isn't a luxury. It's daily kit. Our Breathedry® Heavy Duty jackets and smocks are made for long, wet days around livestock and machinery: fully waterproof, breathable so you don't end up in a sweatbox, and tough enough to shrug off brambles, barbed wire and gates.

Extreme Water Repellence

Breathedry® HD fabric keeps the rain out from first feed to last check.

Breathable, Not a Sweatbox

Moisture escapes while you work, so you stay drier inside as well as out.

Heavy-duty Ripstop

Reinforced panels made to survive livestock, machinery and hedges.

The False Economy

A Cheap PVC Coat

It's cheap to buy, but it rips on the first gate, leaves you sweating by mid-morning and rarely lasts the winter. Then you buy another.

Lower Cost per Wear

An Arbortec Heavy Duty Jacket

It's made to be worn every day, season after season. Breathable, waterproof and tough, it costs less over time and keeps you comfortable while it does.

Tested on the Farm

Built for the daily grind: feeding livestock, mending fences and climbing in and out of the cab. Our Heavy Duty jackets are made to stand up to it, day after day.

FAQs

Farm Clothing Questions

What is the best waterproof jacket for farm work?

For daily outdoor work in wet weather, our Breathedry® Heavy Duty jackets are made for the job: fully waterproof, breathable and reinforced to cope with livestock, machinery and hedges. If you mainly need a lighter layer for showers, choose one of our lightweight rain jackets instead.

Should I choose a half-zip smock or a full-zip jacket?

A half-zip smock (AT4460) has fewer openings for rain to get in and suits farmers who like a traditional pullover smock. A full-zip jacket (AT4480) is quicker to get on and off, and easier to open up when you're working hard. Both use the same Heavy Duty Breathedry® fabric.

Do I need chainsaw protective trousers if I only use a chainsaw occasionally?

Yes. A chainsaw can cause serious leg injuries in a split second, however often you use one, and UK safety guidance recommends leg protection for all chainsaw work. The Treehog TH250 is certified to BS EN ISO 11393-2:2019 Class 1, giving you proper protection at an affordable price for occasional jobs like clearing branches and cutting firewood.

What is the difference between Arbortec and Treehog?

Treehog is Arbortec's sub-brand for essential, budget-friendly kit, built with the same safety know-how. Choose Treehog for occasional tasks and Arbortec for the gear you wear every day.

Which colours suit farm work?

Olive is a popular choice for farmers, estate managers and gamekeepers, with black and red as alternatives. Hi-vis orange and yellow are ideal near roads, in yards with moving vehicles and for contracting work.

Can I get help with sizing?

Yes. Each product page has a size guide, and our UK customer care team is happy to help you find the right fit. Get in touch.
