TRUEWERK
Truewerk is a Denver-based, direct-to-consumer performance workwear brand that borrows fabric technology and construction from the outdoor and military apparel industries and applies it to clothing for skilled trade professionals. Founded in 2015 by former homebuilder Brian Ciciora, the company is best known for its temperature-graded WerkPant system (T1, T2, T3) built from 4-way-stretch, water-resistant, abrasion-resistant synthetic blends that outlast and outperform traditional cotton work pants. Sold primarily through its own e-commerce site alongside a growing uniform-services offering, Truewerk has raised roughly $35M and pitches itself as workwear engineered for comfort, mobility, and durability on the jobsite.
