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.

Waterproof Stretch Work Trousers That Switch From Bib and Brace to Standard in Seconds
The Portwest EV4 Shell Trousers (EV443) handle a lot of jobs in one garment. When the weather turns, zip the bib and braces on for extra coverage. On milder days, zip them off and wear standard trousers. They're built for groundworkers, roofers, landscapers and maintenance crews who spend long shifts outdoors and spend plenty of that time kneeling, climbing and bending.
Key Features:
-
EN 343 Class 4:4 X Weather Protection: These trousers carry a 20,000mm waterproof rating and 10,000g/m²/24hrs breathability (MVP). Heavy rain stays out, and sweat can still escape when you're working hard.
-
Detachable Bib and Braces: The bib zips off completely, so you only need one pair of waterproof trousers for the whole year.
-
3-Layer 4-Way Stretch Fabric: Elastane yarns let the fabric move with you. Add the pre-bent articulated knees and a crotch gusset, and you can climb ladders or crouch in trenches without the material pulling tight.
-
PFAS-Free Texpel Splash Eco Finish: Water beads up and rolls straight off the outer fabric, and Portwest has done it without PFAS chemicals.
-
Taped Seams and Waterproof Zips: These seal the usual weak spots where water tends to creep in.
-
Knee Pad Pockets: Integrated pockets with reinforced knee patches. Fit Portwest S156 knee pads and the trousers are certified to EN 14404:2004+A1:2010 Type 2 Level 0. That makes a real difference on hard ground.
-
Practical Fit Details: You get an adjustable waistband and a zip fly with a Portwest branded stud button. Side zip leg openings let you pull the trousers on over boots, and inner boot clips stop the legs riding up.
-
Storage and Visibility: There are 4 pockets in total, including generously sized front pockets and 2 multi-functional zipped thigh pockets. A reflective print adds a little extra visibility in low light.
The Portwest EV4 EV443 combines EN 343 4:4 X waterproofing, a zip-off bib and genuine stretch in one CE certified garment that weighs around 1.0kg. It comes in Metal Grey, shown here, in sizes Small to 3XL. Order yours today and stay dry and mobile in any weather.
