Hard Yakka and The Block bring workwear to your DIY project


With DIY home renovations on the rise across Australia, more homeowners are diving into projects that showcase their personal style and boost their property’s value. Shows like The Block offer plenty of inspiration, but behind every successful renovation is more than just creativity and skill—it’s having the right gear to get the job done.

This year, The Block teams up with Australia’s leading workwear brand, Hard Yakka, to ensure contestants are equipped with the toughest gear for every challenge. Known for rugged durability and iconic designs, Hard Yakka is supplying its latest ranges, including ToughMaxx, Winter Heritage, and X-Range. These styles blend resilience and comfort, built to work as hard as the Aussies who wear them.

Whether it’s refreshing a tired kitchen, modernising a bathroom, or revamping the backyard, Hard Yakka gear is built with advanced technology and safety in mind,” said Kathryn Dawson-Lee, Brand & Content Manager at Hard Yakka. “We put our products through the wringer with tradies to make sure they can handle the demands of real-world renovation work. Every piece is made to be tough, fit for purpose, from the worksite to your weekend.”

Get the job done with Hard Yakka

Just as The Block contestants wouldn’t start a renovation without their trusted tools, homeowners shouldn’t tackle a DIY project without the right workwear. Hard Yakka’s gear isn’t just clothing—it’s your first line of defence on the worksite, keeping you safe and comfortable so you can focus on getting the job done.

From durable jackets and shackets to dependable hoodies, tops, and safety boots, Hard Yakka’s gear has got you covered, head to toe. With practical features like multi-functional pockets and stretch fabric, our workwear is built to keep up with you—no matter how tough the job. Made with heavy-duty materials that can handle the hard yards, our gear is designed to be as reliable and hardworking as you are, offering comfort and protection through every task.
