Anybody know of a US distributor for Harkie? This looks pretty sweet.

That does look good.

There seems to be a lack of performance work-safety clothing in the US. In order to get the same performance that I expect from my rope, harness, chainsaw and other tools I go to mountaineering clothiers. Then I have to layer on a floppy hi viz vest.

Maybe I haven't done my homework though. Are there any good work-safety manufacturers in the US?

At some point it becomes THEIR homework to put their product in front of their target market. The opportunities are there for them, that's for sure.

I agree, Tom.

The PPE type clothing that I find is on the level with Carhartt. The only function is hi viz, the clothing isn't designed to be efficient.
