Milwaukee® Introduces The New Lightweight WORKSKIN™ Performance Shirts

Following the success of the WORKSKIN™ Mid-Weight Base Layer in 2017, Milwaukee® Tool expands its line of high-performance clothing to help users stay cool and comfortable in warm conditions with the new WORKSKIN™ Light Weight Performance Shirts

Following the success of the WORKSKIN Mid-Weight Base Layer in 2017, Milwaukee® Tool expands its line of high-performance clothing to help users stay cool and comfortable in warm conditions with the new WORKSKIN Light Weight Performance Shirts.

Available in both long and short sleeve, the new WORKSKIN Light Weight Performance Shirts utilize CoolCore® Fabric Technology, which regulates sweat evaporation to move moisture away from the body and provide a cooling effect. This allows the lightweight fabric to stay up to 30% cooler and reduce the body temperature of the USer.  

Extended Fast Dry Sweat Zones accelerate wicking in key areas – under the arms and across the back – to help prevent the shirt

from becoming saturated and uncomfortable. UV Protection helps block harmful rays for those working long hours in the sun.

“Despite the rise in popularity of athletic base layers and performance shirts, our research discovered that most of these products are not designed to address the performance and durability needs specific to jobsite work environments,” said Gaetano Martines, Product Manager for Milwaukee Tool. “Our WORKSKIN line combines advanced material technology with functional, trade-focused design to deliver supreme comfort and longevity while on the jobsite.”

Designed specifically for the demands of the jobsite, WORKSKIN Light Weight Performance Shirts are made from fabrics that resist pilling, snagging, and common abrasion from repeated use. For added utility, the shirts also feature drop-tail extended backs to provide extra coverage when working overhead, and seamless shoulders to reduce discomfort from straps and harnesses.

Made in the USA with global materials, the new shirts will come in both Grey and High Visibility, and in sizes S-XXL.

The new WORKSKINLight Weight Performance Shirts demonstrate Milwaukee®’s continued commitment to delivering high-performance gear built to handle the specific demands of the trades.
