## Description

A skilled tradesperson or service professional who logs long shifts in demanding work environments and depends on footwear and apparel built for the job — not repurposed outdoor gear. Rotates between conditions that require specific performance: Thorogood wedge-sole boots for pavement, Danner 90-degree sole boots for rough terrain, hi-vis safety jackets for road work, and flame-resistant shirts and pants for industrial settings. Shops by occupational requirement and gravitates toward brands with proven reputations in the trades.

Defining Characteristics:
* Works daily in physically demanding environments — construction sites, road crews, industrial facilities, or restaurant floors
* Needs boots built for specific surfaces: wedge soles for pavement, lugged soles for rough terrain
* Relies on hi-vis fluorescent and reflective jackets and pants for road work and outdoor visibility requirements
* Requires flame-resistant shirts and pants for industrial or hazardous work environments
* Shops for professional dress that holds up on the job: spill- and stain-resistant Dockers loafers, collared shirts, khaki pants
