Was dubious about buying, a bag, of the beeswift mp1 gloves, as I was actually looking for an alternate brand, I've had gloves before that were all bundled together, where the rubber was too hard and the material like an old rope, the company sent them out really fast delivery, individually wrapped, premium gloves, really happy, top drawer, as these will be stored in the garage, no damp or spider issues, big thanks to George @ gloves & stuff.

Flame Protection That Lasts The Life Of The Garment
The Portwest FR711 WX3 Long Sleeve Polo combines inherent flame resistance with proper comfort for workers facing heat and flame hazards. Built from a specialised blend of 60% Modacrylic, 39% Cotton, and 1% Carbon Fibre, this polo delivers multi-standard protection without the stiff, uncomfortable feel of treated fabrics. The flame resistance is woven into the fabric itself, not sprayed on as a coating, so it won't wash out or degrade over time.
Key Features:
-
Inherent Flame Resistance: The protective qualities are built into the fabric structure, not applied as a treatment. Wash it 100 times and it still protects you the same as day one.
-
Arc Flash Protection: Rated at 4.4 CAL/CM², providing certified protection against arc flash incidents for electrical workers and those in high-risk environments.
-
Multi-Standard Heat Protection: Guards against radiant, convective, and contact heat. Whether it's welding sparks, flash fires, or hot surfaces, you're covered.
-
Anti-Static Carbon Fibre Blend: The 1% carbon fibre content dissipates static charge, reducing ignition risks in explosive atmospheres. Critical for refineries and chemical plants.
-
UPF 40+ UV Protection: Blocks 98% of harmful UV rays. Outdoor workers get sun protection on top of flame resistance.
-
High Cotton Content: 39% cotton means this actually breathes and feels comfortable during long shifts. Not like wearing a plastic bag.
-
Reflective Segmented Tape: Heat-applied reflective tape ensures visibility in low-light conditions without compromising the flame resistant properties.
-
Ribbed Collar and Cuffs: Added warmth and comfort in cooler weather. The 3-button placket design gives you ventilation control when things heat up.
Portwest's WX3 range delivers proper protective workwear that doesn't compromise on style or comfort. The FR711 polo maintains outstanding colour fastness and resists shrinkage, so it looks professional shift after shift. CE certified and UKCA marked, this is genuine multi-standard protection for serious work environments.
