About Portwest

Portwest is a family-owned workwear, safetywear and PPE manufacturer. It began in 1904, when Charles Hughes opened a footwear and drapery shop in Westport in the west of Ireland, and the Hughes family still runs the business today. Portwest designs its products in-house and owns its own factories, which gives it control over quality and supply.

The range is one of the widest in the industry. Key collections include PW3 and KX3 work jackets and trousers, Iona traffic wear, Bizflame flame-resistant clothing and Sealtex rainwear, alongside Portwest work trousers, Portwest boots and Portwest grip gloves. Many hi-vis styles are certified to EN ISO 20471, and its safety footwear is tested to EN ISO 20345; the exact class and rating is shown on each product page.

Trades choose Portwest because one supplier can cover a whole team, from base layers and coveralls to head-to-toe PPE, in consistent colours and sizes. Browse our EN ISO 20471 hi-vis clothing to compare classes across brands.

It started in 1904, when Charles Hughes opened a footwear and drapery shop in Westport in the west of Ireland. The Hughes family still runs the business, which now sells around the world.

What is Portwest known for?

Hi-vis and flame-resistant clothing

Portwest's designers specialise in high-visibility and flame-resistant clothing. Portwest hi vis ranges from traffic jackets and bombers to breathable rain gear, bib and brace and coveralls, in both yellow and orange. Protection ratings vary by garment, so check the product page for the standards and class that apply.

Head-to-toe protection

As well as clothing, Portwest makes hand, foot and hearing protection, disposable coveralls, chemical-resistant garments, welding wear and spill kits. That makes it easy to get a whole team kitted out from one brand.

Choosing the right Portwest kit

Start with the hazards on your site. If you need to be seen near traffic or plant, choose hi-vis and check the class on the product page. For wet weather, look at Sealtex or the breathable rain ranges. If there's a risk of flame or arc flash, look at Bizflame. For everyday trade work, PW3 and KX3 offer tough trousers, jackets and layers that also take a logo well.
