What are the main safety standards this jacket meets?

This jacket is CE certified and meets several key safety standards including EN ISO 20471 Class 3 for high visibility, EN 343:2019 Class 3:1 for protection against rain, and EN 342 for protection against cold. It also complies with RIS-3279-TOM ISSUE 1 (for orange only) and AS/NZS 1906.4.

What is the waterproof rating of the outer jacket?

The outer jacket has a waterproof rating of WP 15,000mm, indicating it can withstand significant water pressure and is suitable for heavy rain conditions.

Can the inner fleece jacket be worn separately?

Yes, the inner jacket can be worn separately. Its fluorescent fleece sleeves are also detachable, allowing for further customization based on weather conditions.

What material is the outer shell made of?

The shell fabric is 100% Polyester, 300D Oxford Weave with a PU Coated finish and a stain-resistant treatment.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its properties?

It is recommended to wash with like colours on a gentle cycle, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid dry cleaning to preserve the waterproof and reflective properties.

Does this jacket have a hood?

Yes, the outer jacket features a concealed adjustable hood that can be packed away when not in use.

Troubleshooting

Outer jacket is not fully waterproof

Check if seams are properly taped and free from damage. Ensure all zippers and cuffs are securely fastened. Consider that heavy, prolonged rain may eventually saturate the fabric beyond its WP rating.

Reflective tape is losing reflectivity

Clean the tape gently with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the reflective surface. Ensure the jacket is not over-dried in a hot tumble dryer.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Inner jacket's fleece is pilling

This is a common occurrence with fleece. It does not affect the thermal properties. To minimize, wash inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid high heat in the dryer. Consider using a fabric shaver for excessive pilling.
