FAQs

What makes this bib & brace 'Accelerate Safe'?

The 'Accelerate Safe' designation refers to its high visibility features (Hi-Vis Orange, reflective tapes) meeting EN ISO 20471 Class 2 standards, and its safety-oriented design including robust kneepad pockets.

How do I adjust the leg length?

Each standard leg length can be lengthened by 3 cm by carefully releasing the internal red stitches located at the hem.

What type of kneepads are compatible?

For full EN 14404 certification, we recommend MASCOT kneepad types SHORT or LONG, specifically models like MASCOT Waterloo, Grant, Likasi, 20118-915, 00718-100, or 50454-916.

Can the holster pockets be removed?

Yes, the holster pockets are detachable, allowing them to be zipped off when not needed or for easier washing of the garment.

What is the benefit of the stretch fabric?

The four-way stretch fabric is strategically placed to provide enhanced freedom of movement and superior comfort, particularly in areas that require more flexibility during work activities.

How durable are the kneepad pockets?

The kneepad pockets are made from durable CORDURA®, often reinforced with materials like Kevlar® and Dyneema® for exceptional strength and resistance to wear and tear.

What are the washing instructions?

The bib & brace should be washed normally at 40°C. Avoid bleaching and tumble drying. It can be dry-cleaned and tolerates industrial washing.

Troubleshooting

Visibility reduced after washing

Ensure you follow the recommended washing instructions carefully. Avoid harsh detergents or excessive heat during washing and drying, as these can degrade reflective materials.

Kneepads do not stay in place

Adjust the height and position of the kneepad pockets within the garment. Ensure you are using compatible MASCOT kneepads as recommended for optimal fit and function.

Straps feel uncomfortable or too tight/loose

Adjust the length of the elastic straps using the plastic buckles. Ensure the bib & brace is the correct size for your body to avoid undue tension.

Fabric feels stiff after multiple washes

Confirm that the garment is being washed according to the care instructions, specifically avoiding bleach and tumble drying. Some stiffness may be inherent to the durable fabric blend.
