By: Blaklader USA Carpenters can often spend a lot of time on their knees, bending over to pick up or move items, but many have never had pants with kneepads to protect them from bumps, scrapes and rough surfaces. Blaklader Bantam workpants feature a special pocket for kneepads, which can be inserted quickly and easily. The built-in pads allow for swift transitions between fixing or installing overhead and lower-level cabinets without the hassle of putting on and taking off constricting wrap-around kneepads. Knee injury can stem from abnormal wear and tear and years of misuse, according to the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA). The efficiency of a non-intrusive, built-in kneepad saves time and can prevent knee injuries. Built-in kneepad pockets also prevent other problems caused by traditional strap-on kneepads. Straps around the back of the knee can cut off circulation and cause discomfort. According to OSHA, bending a knee for an extended period of time can reduce blood circulation – even without constricting kneepads. All too often, durability and functionality features can appear as add-ons or afterthoughts to traditional workpants. Blaklader’ Exterior Utility Pockets Utility pockets allow constant access to tools, screws and nails without using a tool belt. The pockets also make it easy to access tools while on a ladder or a knee. Blaklader engineers cut the pocket corners at a 45-degree angle to make those last few screws easy to grab. The slanted corners also make the pockets easy to tuck in when not in use. Stitching on the bottom seam of the pocket is raised to make these pockets extra durable preventing tear-outs at pressure points. Extra-Long Tool Pocket Side pockets on traditional workpants are attached at the bottom allowing tools to jab and cut the back of the leg when kneeling. The extended side pocket on Blaklader workpants fits tools as large as a hammer and is disconnected on the bottom, allowing it to swing when kneeling. The technology removes pressure from the leg and allows easy access to tools in the pocket. The disconnected pocket also keeps tools from sliding out unnoticed when sitting or kneeling. Bellowed Pockets Pockets on traditional workwear are stitched directly on the bottom and are strained when tools or supplies are added. All pockets on Blaklader workpants utilize raised stitching to strengthen the pocket so tradesmen can easily access tools. The bellow also prevents tools from puncturing the pocket. Triple-Stitched Seams Seams throughout the pants are triple-stitched to prevent tear outs. While triple stitching is not uncommon, Blaklader’s limited lifetime warranty on seams sets the workwear brand apart. Whether you’re a finish carpenter or cabinetmaker, Blaklader workpants offer simple form and function. Blaklader workwear is available across the U.S. at leading hardware and building products retailers.
