FAQs

What is EN ISO 20471 Class 2 certification?

This certification indicates that the garment meets specific standards for high-visibility clothing, ensuring it provides adequate visibility for workers in environments with potential hazards from moving machinery or vehicles. Class 2 is a mid-level standard for visibility.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

The vest should fit comfortably over your regular work attire. It should not be too tight, restricting movement, nor too loose, posing a snagging hazard. Refer to the sizing chart provided by MyShoeStore for specific measurements.

Can this vest be worn in all weather conditions?

The vest is made from durable polyester and provides visibility. For very cold weather, it is designed to be worn over insulating layers. For very hot weather, the polyester material may offer limited breathability, so consider appropriate underlayers.

How many pockets does the vest have?

The vest features multiple storage options, including an ID holder, a pen pocket, a radio loop, two front flap pockets, and a mobile phone pocket.

Is the yellow color standard for high-visibility vests?

Yes, fluorescent yellow and orange are the standard, highly visible colors used for high-visibility garments to ensure wearers are easily seen during daylight hours.

What is the difference between Class 2 and Class 3 vests?

Class 3 vests offer the highest level of visibility and are typically required for work environments with the highest risks, such as roadside work. Class 2 offers a good level of visibility suitable for many occupational settings.

Can I machine wash the vest?

Yes, the vest can be machine washed at a maximum of 40°C (104°F). It is important to follow all other care instructions, such as not using bleach and tumble drying on low heat, to preserve the reflective properties.

Troubleshooting

Reflective stripes are fading or damaged.

This may be due to improper washing or excessive wear. Ensure you follow the care instructions carefully, avoiding harsh detergents, high heat, and abrasive cleaning methods. Consider replacing the vest if the reflective properties are significantly compromised.

Zipper is difficult to operate.

Ensure the fabric is clear of the zipper teeth before attempting to zip. If the zipper is stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Vest feels restrictive during movement.

Verify that the correct size has been selected. The vest should fit comfortably over your work clothing without being too tight. Ensure the zip is fastened correctly, allowing for a snug but not constricting fit.
