FAQs
What does EN ISO 20471:2013 Class 2/3 mean?
This certification indicates the garment meets specific standards for high visibility clothing. Class 2 offers a base level of visibility, while Class 3 provides the highest level, typically for higher risk environments. The classification can depend on the garment size.
Is this garment suitable for cold weather?
The Addvis Longsleeve is designed for visibility and comfort. For cold weather, it serves as an excellent base or mid-layer, but additional insulation will be required for warmth.
Can I iron the reflective stripes?
No, you should never iron the reflective stripes. Ironing can damage the material and diminish its reflective properties. Refer to the 'Do not iron' instruction in the care guide.
What material is the shirt made of?
The main fabric is 100% Polyester, featuring 4-way stretch for comfort and flexibility.

What is the return policy if the size is incorrect?

Troubleshooting
Reflective strips losing reflectivity
Ensure the garment has been washed according to the care instructions, avoiding high heat, harsh detergents, and fabric softener.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Fabric softener was likely used, which can stiffen polyester. Follow care instructions precisely for future washes.
Garment fit is too tight or loose
Refer to the sizing chart and ensure you selected the correct size based on measurements. Available in sizes XS to XXXXL.
Discomfort during extended wear
Ensure the correct size is being worn and consider if additional base layers are needed for temperature regulation. Check that care instructions were followed to maintain fabric softness.
