FAQs

What does EN ISO 20471:2013 Class 2 mean?

This standard specifies the requirements for high-visibility clothing. Class 2 indicates a medium level of visibility, suitable for workers who are not in the highest risk category but still require significant conspicuity.

How often should I wash these pants?

The care instructions recommend washing in warm water up to 20 times. Over-washing can reduce the effectiveness of the high-visibility features and the fabric's integrity.

Can I iron these pants?

No, ironing is not recommended. High heat from ironing can damage the fabric and compromise the reflective elements essential for their safety rating.

What is the benefit of the gusset in the crotch?

The gusset is an extra panel of fabric inserted into the crotch area, designed to provide greater freedom of movement and reduce stress on the seams during activities like bending, kneeling, or squatting.

Is the fabric stretchy?

Yes, the pants are made with a 2-way stretch fabric, which allows for more flexibility and comfort during physical activity.

What material are these pants made from?

The main fabric is OEKO-TEX® approved, and while the exact blend isn't specified, it is designed for durability and comfort in workwear, likely incorporating synthetic fibers for stretch and resilience.

Where is the ID card loop located?

The ID card loop is typically located on the exterior of the pants, often near the waist or a pocket, for easy attachment and display of an identification card.

Troubleshooting

Reduced visibility after washing

Ensure you are following the strict washing instructions. Avoid using bleach or high heat, which can degrade the reflective properties and fabric color.

Stitching or seams coming apart

Inspect the garment for wear and tear. If seams are failing prematurely, contact the retailer or manufacturer as this may indicate a defect. Avoid stretching the fabric excessively during repairs.

Fabric feels stiff or uncomfortable

Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions. Some stiffness may be inherent to workwear materials; break-in period might be required. Check that the correct size is being worn for unrestricted movement.
