According to the 2024 Women In Trucking Index, women make up nearly 9.5% of today’s professional drivers. That might seem relatively small, but it has increased by over 68% since 2010.
As the number of women in trucking continues to increase, Dickies® and Red Kap® have continued to offer them an ever-growing range of uniform products to meet their individual needs.
Take uniform sizes, for instance. We offer one of the widest selections of women’s uniform sizes in the trucking industry, ensuring a comfortable fit in a wide selection of uniform styles and colors.
Yet, what sets our two brands apart from other uniform suppliers is that our products are tested in the field under actual working conditions. We gather data about every detail from the women who wear them, from overall comfort to the type and placement of the pockets.
For example, Dickies® FLEX and Red Kap® MIMIX® utilize two different technologies to offer trucking professionals all-day comfort and greater freedom of movement. Allowing both men and women to bend, stretch, reach, and squat all day comfortably and with less fatigue.
Dickies® Temp-iQ™ and WorkTech innovations, along with CoolCore® and AirFlow for Red Kap®, allow trucking professionals to stay cool and comfortable under any conditions. Utilizing a combination of moisture-wicking fabrics, ventilated mesh panels, or a proprietary fabric finish, we make it easy for your team to keep their cool on and off the clock.
Red Kap also offers innovative design features like ZeroSkratch® and SafeCinch® in a select number of its uniform products. ZeroSkratch® is designed to keep buttons, zippers, and snaps under wraps. Red Kap’s patented SafeCinch® technology stashes your hoodie strings in your pocket. Tucked-away strings eliminate hassles and hazards, and securing strings makes laundering easy.
With the projected growth of the trucking industry and more and more women entering the trucking workforce every year, it’s nice to know that you can Rely On The Uniform Experts at Dickies® and Red Kap® to help offer your team uniform solutions that meet their needs.
