Fabrics and finishes are designed for on-site comfort, functionality and durability.

"While we have retained many items in our traditional colours we have had some fun with our new Nineteen 15 label in recognition of the year in which Makita Electric Works was founded," says Kevin Brannigan, Marketing Manager, Makita UK, "adding large, chest-width printed logos."

The new Nineteen 15 label consists of:

Stylish 3-pack, high quality printed T shirts in navy, red and grey
Two lightweight pullover hoodies in superweight 320gsm, 100% cotton, in grey and black.

"Equally, the new label items look as good in the pub as they do on site but the main ingredient remains unchanged - high quality fabrics for great performance and tough functionality."

The LXT Pro label is exceptional and innovative, offering exceptional strength and durability. Two new LXT footwear items include the LXT Pro-Lite Hiker Boot and the Pro-Lite Trainer. These lightweight, highly flexible, non-slip safety footwear conform to EN20345 :2004, S3 standard with lightweight composite midsole and toe-cap and are totally metal free. Improved water resistant Nubuck leather upper with nylon mesh inserts make these new designs more durable with tough-performance credentials.

LXT Pro Trouser - A lightweight LXT Pro Trouser is also available in dual yarn cotton canvas, with integral hard wearing Cordura® top loading kneepad pouches and hem guards, and is the ideal twin for the
LXT Pro Zip Hoodie in 100% brushed cotton knitted fabric
