The practical kit
Most painters wear comfortable work pants, a light shirt that breathes, and shoes they do not mind ruining. Many keep a separate set of clothes for messy work and a clean branded shirt for meetings and estimates.
Fabric
Lightweight shirts keep painters cooler on ladders and in closed rooms. Polyester dries quickly if it gets wet. Paint can stain any fabric, so many crews rotate shirts.
Use your shirt as advertising
Neighbours see your crew at the house for days. A shirt with your company name and phone number turns that into free advertising. See how to uniform a trade crew.

Long sleeves protect arms from splatter and sun on exterior jobs.
