A Milwaukee Tool newsletter just hit my inbox, promoting their “Safe + Sound Week” contest.
Apparently there’s a special nationwide event that recognizes the successes of workpace safety and health programs. Milwaukee has launched a new contest/giveaway to celebrate this event and what it stands for.

Milwaukee was showing off all of their new personal protective gear at their NPS19 new tool show, and they seemed very competitively featured, at least given my knowledge and experience with similar existing products.
I know that some of you are reluctant to share your personal information with companies. This isn’t a MUST-ENTER giveaway in my opinion, but it’s one I’d likely enter if I were eligible. Well, I might be eligible, but we work closely enough with Milwaukee that we might be considered an affiliate.
Seems like a cool giveaway.
Out of curiosity, if we were to ask Milwaukee to supply some of their new PPE gear for a ToolGuyd giveaway, which of the new products would you want to win?

I also had to sign up for their newsletter to let it take my entry. Not that I mind so much just an FYI
Thanks for the notice

If anyone’s curious, the contest is open to Canadians.
I’m interested in Milwaukee’s gloves and goggles.

Hard hats.. My agency buys the cheapest ones available and they don’t hold up

You can not compare the quality of work wear from brands like DeWALT and Milwaukee with Swedish brands like Blaklader or Jobman, You can rarely find good discounts for them on Amazon, but if not you will find them so expensive, They make a lot of 100% cotton trousers, jackets and other things, very durable boots, even their Hi Viz work wear are cotton blend mostly.

Stewart, any clue when these new safety goggles will get released? I’m excited to try them for the fog resistance, but can’t find any details on their estimated release time!!

THANK YOU!
Stuart
You’re welcome! That’s from NPS19 press materials since the new safety tools were not officially announced yet (or at least I don’t believe they were). Meaning, it can be subject to change.

I’ve entered a few of these giveaways (haven’t been lucky, yet). Milwaukee has had some massive giveaway bundles- I’ve never seen a brand offer up so much in single contests before.
I bought the insulated cut level 1 gloves. They’re comfortable and water resistant, but not as warm as I had hoped.
I’d get the most use out of the glasses and gloves. With that said, I’m interested in the tool tethers as well.
