how many construction workers are concerned with keeping their work boots and gloves free of dirt stains?

They may not think about it, but dirt particles can shorten the life of many materials. Particles that make their way into fabric damage the fibers. I forget what mud does to leather, but I'm pretty sure there are deleterious effects there as well.
