Shearing season in the UK or across the globe requires the right clothing to meet the physical demands which come with the job. Just as manufacturers invest in perfecting shearing equipment, they also prioritise designing suitable clothing. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting, here’s what to consider when selecting your shearing clothing:
Shearing singlets.
Shearing singlets are longer than standard vests and are designed for continual body bending. Look for durability, flexibility, breathability, and quick-drying features. With various brands available, choose wisely for comfort and performance.
Shearing Jeans.
Shearing Jeans undergo rigorous design and engineering to withstand the demands of shearing. They must be tough, yet comfortable, whilst being flexible too. They must also incorporate breathability while minimising chafing. Look for reinforced areas for added protection, as safety is paramount.
Shearing footwear.
Only use shearing moccasins, not boots, shearing moccasins provide a flat surface for the foot for optimal contact with the shearing boards as they have no heel, so provide better bend and improved grip. They are flat, flexible shoes that provide comfort and freedom of movement for maximum groove, bend and grip.
Shearing clothing accessories.
Complete your shearing outfit with optional shearing clothing extras like singlets, hoodies, tops, belts and braces. These accessories enhance your comfort and performance during shearing. Ultimately, when choosing your clothing, consider recommendations from fellow shearers or professional dealers, along with your personal preferences.
