❓ HOLIDAY SHOPPING FAQ ❓

Quick answers to help you choose the right gear, faster!

Need a holiday gift for a construction worker—what safety gear will they actually use on the jobsite?
Go for daily-wear essentials: a Class 2 or 3 hi-vis vest or safety jacket, reflective hoodie, durable work gloves, and wet-weather rain gear. If they work at heights, fall protection (harness/lanyard/SRL) is hugely practical—just match it to their exact job and site rules.
Shopping for hi-vis PPE gifts—should you choose Class 2 or Class 3 reflective safety apparel?
Choose Class 2 for general construction/warehouse work where visibility risk is moderate. Choose Class 3 for roadside traffic, night work, bad weather, or high-speed areas—it adds more reflective coverage (often sleeves/extra striping) for maximum “seen” factor.
Trying to buy fall protection as a gift—how do you pick the right safety harness size and fit?
Use their chest/torso measurement and the brand’s size chart, then prioritize adjustability (shoulders, chest, leg straps) so it fits over layers. Make sure the harness is industrial fall protection-rated (ANSI Z359.11) and fits their worker weight range. If you can’t confirm sizing, a gift card or “pick together” is safest.
Choosing a safety lanyard gift—single-leg, double-leg, or positioning lanyard for the work they do?

• Single-leg shock-absorbing: basic tie-off when they’re not constantly moving anchor points.

• Double-leg (Y) shock-absorbing: best for 100% tie-off while moving between anchors.

• Positioning lanyard: for work positioning only (hands-free support)—not your primary fall-arrest choice.

Also, ensure to match the connector style (snap hook vs rebar/scaffold hook) to what they clip onto.

Buying a self-retracting lifeline (SRL) gift—what length and style works best for jobsite safety?
Pick the shortest length that still lets them work comfortably (shorter usually reduces slack/free-fall). Then match the style: overhead tie-off SRL for typical use, leading-edge rated SRL-LE if they tie off at foot level/over sharp edges, and choose web (lighter) vs cable (more abrasion resistant). Always confirm the ANSI class/rating and worker weight range.
Picking reflective rain gear for winter work—what makes waterproof high-visibility rain gear truly work-ready?
Look for waterproof + seam-sealed construction, a storm flap/zip protection, secure hood, adjustable cuffs, and durable fabric that won’t tear easily. For high-risk visibility, go Class 3 reflective rain gear (jacket + bibs is a great combo). Comfort upgrades: breathable lining, venting, and layered sizing.
Looking for budget-friendly safety stocking stuffers—what PPE accessories make the most practical holiday gifts?
Top “small but used daily” picks: work gloves, warm beanies/neck gaiters, hard hat sweatbands, helmet lights/headlamps, safety glasses, earplugs, hi-vis reflective beanies, and tool/phone accessories (like a rugged phone/ID pocket for harnesses/vests). These are easy wins when you don’t know exact sizing.
