PRIMARY / SECONDARY COLOURS

Workwear Products
The colour required can be selected in the sidebar navigation system.

Casual & Business Products
The number of colourways can be large, >100 for polos due to:-

  • Different suppliers use different names for the one colour e.g. names for light blue include sky blue, pale blue and spring blue.
  • Many products have two or three colours in each colourway e.g. white/navy..
  • Many styles have 10 to 20 colourways available, some have > 20..

To simplify colour selection for these products, both primary & secondary colours have been converted to one of 23 generic colours. Any tertiary colour has been ignored.

For those products where the number of colourways is large and the generic colour selection system has been implemented, the generic primary & secondary colours can be selected from the top of the navigation sidebar on the left hand side. To use this generic colour selection system:-

  1. Select the primary colour
  2. The "Find" button now apears. Clicking the "Find" button at this point will filter the products displayed so only  products with the selected primary colour are displayed.
  3. When the availbale secondary colours have been loaded, "Loading" disappears from the secondary colour field. Select the appropriate secondary colour. For products of one colour only, click the same secondary colour as selected for the primary colour e.g Blue Navy/Blue Navy for a Navy colour.
  4. Click the "Find" button.
  5. Products are filtered so that only those with the selected primary & secondary colours are displayed.
  6. To filter for a different colour combination, click the "Reset" button and repeat the above procedure.

Other filters may be used before or after using the primary/secondary colour selection system.

Primary & secondary generic colours are used for navigation only; all colours displayed on the product pages are the brand colours.
