Product Information

Full details

The Mascot Accelerate Safe Hoodie with Zipper is designed for adult males seeking enhanced safety and comfort in demanding work environments. Its key benefit is high visibility combined with a modern, comfortable fit, ideal for construction and outdoor roles. A potential caveat is that the highest visibility certification (Class 3) applies to specific sizes (XS-S), with others falling under Class 2. This hoodie features a two-toned design, a blend of cotton and polyester for durability and comfort, reflective strips, and multiple pockets for practicality.

FAQs

What is the visibility certification of this hoodie?

The hoodie is certified to EN ISO 20471 - Class 3 for sizes XS-S, and Class 2 for sizes M and above. It is also certified to EN 13758-2 UPF 40+ for UV protection.

What materials is the hoodie made from?

The hoodie is made from a blend of 60% combed cotton for the inside (brushed for softness) and 40% polyester for the durable outer layer.

Can I put a logo on this hoodie?

Yes, the maximum logo area is 0.2400 m² for XS-S and 0.0300 m² for M-5XL. However, a logo on the front or back can only constitute a maximum of 50% of the total approved logo area to maintain EN ISO 20471-certification.

How do I care for the hoodie to maintain its features?

Machine wash at 40°C, do not bleach, do not tumble dry, and iron at a moderate temperature. Professional dry-cleaning is also permitted. Proper care ensures the durability and visibility features are maintained.

What makes this hoodie comfortable?

It features combed cotton on the inside which is brushed for extra softness and warmth. An internal neck yoke and extra padding over the neck seam prevent irritation.

Is this hoodie suitable for all weather conditions?

While the polyester blend offers durability and the brushed cotton provides warmth, it is primarily a work hoodie. For extreme cold, layering would be recommended. Its UPF 40+ rating makes it suitable for sunny conditions.

What are the pocket options?

The hoodie features practical front pockets for general storage and inner pockets for securing smaller items.

Troubleshooting

Hoodie not sufficiently visible

Ensure the hoodie is clean and free of dirt or grease that could obscure reflective strips. Check that the size corresponds to the correct visibility class certification (Class 3 for XS-S, Class 2 for larger sizes).

Shrinking after washing

Adhere strictly to the washing instructions (normal wash 40°C) and avoid tumble drying, which can cause shrinkage. Iron at a moderate temperature.

Zipper malfunction

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. If the zipper is stiff, a small amount of graphite from a pencil or wax can help lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Reduced comfort or warmth

The brushed inside provides warmth; ensure this side is facing inwards. If experiencing reduced comfort, check that the correct size has been selected and that the garment has been washed according to care instructions.
