Clothing suggestions for new delivery driver

Post by Majix »

I just started last week as a delivery driver for Royal Mail through Angard, I was surprised that neither side would provide any clothing/uniform.

Does anyone have any suggestions for Trousers or Shoes to wear that will be mostly waterproof, I prefer trainers over boots but happy to hear any suggestions.

Choose trainers with good ankle and arch support; skimping can lead to pain. For bottoms, opt for cargo pants or shorts, but avoid denim, as it can chafe uncomfortably when wet.
