After looking into it a bit more I have found out they are 5,000mm waterproof - which is suitable for rain, just not the intense amount of water from the spray of a pressure washer.

They are still better than the other ones I bought before.

I guess you don't clean floor all that much, but do higher level stuff so they may not take a beating.


They do look good though! ;)

I'm surprised you have found them to be a bit s*it

I have four pairs and we hammer them and do a great deal of low level, never got wet in them. If you don't tuck your trousers in your socks the bottoms drag and collect water.

I have worked in them p*ssing down with heavy rain and my T shirt was wet before my legs. They are lined so maybe a dodgy pair, I don't know.

Feel bad for recommending them now.

Nah, don't feel bad mate.
They are better then my older ones.

I used them yesterday and was a bit more careful with where the water was gong an they were ok.
These ones have a velcro fastening at the bottom of the legs which stop them from dragging.

My waterproofs have like material inside and nice and warm and cosy.  Got them from market.

The ones I give lads as uniform are Goretex ones which have little cuffs inside them to stop water getting up leg.
