Flame Resistant Henley Work Shirt - FR Treated Comfort

Our review finds the Flame Resistant Henley work shirt best suited to industrial tradespeople who need reliable daily protection without sacrificing comfort. In this review the shirt stands out for combining certified flame resistance with a soft, prewashed knit that feels like regular workwear; users who weld, wire, or work in construction will appreciate the balance of safety and wearability. The biggest reason to buy is the certified FR protection that remains effective through many washes while the Henley styling keeps it comfortable on long shifts.

Key Features

• 7oz FR Knit: The 7oz cotton knit treated for flame resistance offers a durable yet soft layer that wears comfortably under jobsite conditions.
• Certified Protection: Meets NFPA 2112, NFPA 70E, ASTM F1506 and HRC2 standards so it provides recognized protection against flash fire and arc hazards.
• Long-lasting FR Performance: Protection is maintained through repeated laundering and is rated to remain effective for up to 100 washes, extending the garment life.
• FR Hardware and Construction: FR buttons and FR sewing thread reduce weak points and ensure the shirt stays compliant garment-wide.
• Prewashed Fit: The shirt comes preshrunk and wrinkle resistant, offering a soft, fashion-forward fit without needing to size up.

Who It's For

This shirt is designed for welders, fitters, ironworkers, electricians and other industrial workers who require certified flame resistant workwear. Its combination of NFPA and ASTM certifications and HRC2 rating makes it appropriate for environments with potential flash fire or arc flash hazards.

Those who work in very hot climates or need lightweight daily layers for non-hazardous tasks may prefer a lighter FR option; likewise, anyone needing a very slim tailored fit should check measurements because this model runs big and is offered in a big & tall fit.
