This Portwest Hi-Vis Classic Softshell Jacket in Yellow (Size L) is designed for male adults requiring enhanced visibility and protection from the elements. Its key benefit is the combination of water repellency, breathability, and high-visibility features, making it ideal for outdoor work. A potential caveat is its specific fit and material, which may vary in comfort for different body types or extreme cold conditions. This jacket offers a warm, comfortable, and water-repellent solution with practical features like multiple pockets, reflective tape, and UPF 40+ rated fabric.

The jacket has an extremely water-resistant fabric finish, suitable for light rain and showers. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, a waterproof jacket would provide better protection.
The jacket features a total of 4 pockets: two side zip pockets, one zipped chest pocket, and one internal pocket.
The jacket is lined with micro polar fleece for warmth. For extremely cold conditions, it is recommended to layer additional warm clothing underneath.
UPF 40+ means the fabric is rated to block 98% of harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun, offering significant sun protection.
Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent, avoiding fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or line dry. Iron on a low setting if necessary, preferably inside out. Do not dry clean with aggressive solvents.
While this specific variant is listed as 'Male', the design is a classic softshell style. Always refer to the size guide for the best fit. Some Portwest softshell jackets are available in unisex options.
The jacket is certified to EN ISO 20471 after 50 washes, indicating its high-visibility properties are maintained through this number of wash cycles under specified conditions.
This could be due to excessive perspiration. Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers for the activity level. Check that the jacket is not overly tight, allowing for air circulation. If water has penetrated, re-apply a water-repellent treatment after washing and drying.
Avoid high heat drying and excessive ironing directly on the tape. If minor peeling occurs, gentle adhesive may be used, but significant damage may require replacement of the garment for safety compliance.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a mild soap solution. Lubricate with a graphite pencil or a silicone-based lubricant. Avoid forcing the zipper.
The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. After washing and drying according to instructions, re-apply a suitable DWR spray or wash-in treatment. Ensure the garment is clean before application.
Setup:
This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure the correct size is selected for optimal comfort and mobility. The jacket features adjustable hook and loop cuffs that can be tightened for a snug fit.
