FAQs

What material is the t-shirt made from?

The t-shirt is made from a 175g knit fabric consisting of 55% Cotton and 45% Polyester.

Is this t-shirt suitable for all types of work environments?

It is ideal for environments requiring high visibility and where comfort and breathability are important. The two-tone design helps with dirt concealment. Specific certifications may apply to certain colorways.

How long will the reflective tape last?

The t-shirt is certified to EN ISO 20471 after 50 washes, indicating the reflective properties are maintained for at least that many cycles under proper care.

Does the t-shirt offer protection from the sun?

Yes, the fabric has a 40+ UPF rating, which blocks over 98% of UV rays.

What does RIS 3279-TOM compliance mean?

This compliance applies to the orange colorway and is a specific standard for high-visibility clothing required in the UK rail industry.

Can I wear this t-shirt in very cold weather?

While it offers breathability, it is a lightweight t-shirt. For colder conditions, layering may be necessary.

How should I wash the t-shirt to maintain its properties?

Machine wash warm (max 40°C), do not bleach, tumble dry low, and iron on a low setting. Avoid dry cleaning and fabric softeners.

Troubleshooting

Fading of color or reflective tape

Ensure washing is done according to the care instructions. Avoid harsh detergents and excessive heat during washing and drying. Limit washing to the recommended number of cycles for optimal longevity.

Reduced breathability or moisture-wicking

Check for any fabric softener buildup, as this can clog the fabric's pores. Ensure filters in washing machines and dryers are clean. Wash with a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners.

Comfort fit feels too loose or tight

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Portwest to ensure you have selected the correct size. Different sizes are available to accommodate various body types.
