Westpeak Ripstop Shirts: Built for the Jobsite, Year-Round

Westpeak Ripstop: The Ultimate Workshirt for Any Season

Spring’s here, and while the days are getting warmer, the job doesn’t slow down. That’s why having workwear that adapts to every season is a must. Enter Westpeak’s 100% Cotton Ripstop Shirts (like styles V67A, V214, V215) – designed to handle tough conditions, keep you comfortable, and looking sharp year-round.

Why Choose Ripstop?

Ripstop fabric is engineered for durability and performance. Woven with a special reinforcing technique, it resists tearing and ripping – ideal for the demands of the jobsite. The Westpeak Ripstop shirts are made from 100% cotton, 155gsm ripstop fabric, giving you the perfect balance of strength, comfort, and breathability. The Ripstop fabric is a weaving technique with thicker threads interwoven to reinforce the fabric. This clever design helps prevent small tears from spreading, making your shirt more durable.

But Ripstop isn’t just tough – its designed for movement. Mechanical stretch in the weave allows freedom of motion for bending, lifting, and climbing without feeling restricted. Critical seams feature triple-stitching, so these shirts stand up to repeated wear and heavy-duty tasks while reduced the risk of splits or fraying.

This shows that Westpeak’s 100% Cotton Ripstop Shirts are not just tough workwear – they’re engineered to support your team’s performance, comfort, and safety, day in and day out.

Spring-Ready, Worksite-Ready

The start of spring often brings unpredictable weather – brisk mornings, warm afternoons, and cooler evenings. Westpeak Ripstop shirts make the transition seamless:

  • Breathable cotton: Keeps you cool as temperatures rise, moisture-wicking helps manage sweat, and prevents overheating on long days outdoors.
  • Long & Short Sleeve options: Flexibility to suit the season and the job. Give your crew the option of what works best for them – extra coverage of longer sleeves on cool mornings, or short sleeves for comfort when the day heats up.
  • Durable construction with triple-stitched seams: Engineered to withstand tough jobsite conditions, resist tearing and fraying, and maintain shape and colour after repeated washes.
  • Smart design with day/night hi-vis options: Reflective tape and hi-vis colours keep your team visible in all conditions – from early starts to late finishes - without compromising comfort or mobility.

No matter the forecast, Westpeak’s 100% Cotton Ripstop Shirts give your crew the flexibility, protection, and freedom to work efficiently.

Year-Round Workwear

Ripstop isn’t just for spring – it’s built to perform in every season:

  • Summer: Lightweight and breathable, keeping your team cool and comfortable on hot days.
  • Winter: Layer easily over thermals for extra warmth. The mechanical stretch and durable construction ensure comfort and protection during rugged outdoor work.
  • Year-round: Tough enough to withstand heavy wear and tear, and resistant to snags and abrasions and multiple washes.

Across all seasons, Westpeak Ripstop shirts are a versatile solution designed to keep your crew safe, comfortable, and ready for any job.

Meets AS/NZ Day/Night Standards

Safety isn’t just about durability – it’s also about visibility. Westpeak’s Ripstop shirts meet the official Australian/New Zealand safety standard for day/night visibility (AS/NZS 4602.1:2011), meaning they’re fully compliant hi-vis workwear that your team can rely on.

Here’s what this looks like in practice:

  • Day standard: Hi-vis fluorescent colours (like orange or yellow) that make workers more stand out in daylight.
  • Night standard: Reflective tape is positioned correctly so workers remain visible under headlights or other artificial light.
  • Day/Night standard: A combination of both, ensuring visibility and safety any time of day – from bright sunlight to low light, or after dark.

With Ripstop shirts that meet AS/NZ standards, your crew stays safe, visible, and covered across all conditions – all while enjoying the comfort and breathability of 100% cotton.

Upgrade Your Jobsite Gear

When the weather changes, don’t settle for shirts that can’t keep up. Westpeak Ripstop Shirts are proven performers, combining strength, comfort and versatility in one durable workwear solution.
