FAQs

What does EN ISO 20471 Class 3 mean?

This certification indicates the garment meets the highest standard for high-visibility clothing, ensuring optimal conspicuity for the wearer in potentially hazardous environments.

Is the hood detachable?

Yes, the hood is detachable and designed to be helmet-compatible, offering flexibility and enhanced safety.

How do I wash the jacket to maintain its water repellency?

Machine wash at 40°C max with liquid detergent, avoiding fabric softener. Crucially, tumble dry on low heat after washing, as this reactivates the water-repellent treatment.

Can I use this jacket in very cold temperatures?

The jacket is certified EN 342:2017 for cold protection, making it suitable for cold work environments. For extreme cold or inactivity, layering may be necessary.

What material is the jacket made of?

The shell is 100% Polyester, the lining is 100% Polyamide, and the insulation for both sleeves and body is 100% Polyester (Recycled).

Can I put the jacket in the washing machine?

Yes, the jacket can be machine washed in lukewarm water at 40°C maximum, up to 20 times. Ensure all zippers and hook-and-loop fasteners are closed before washing.

What is the benefit of the extended back design?

The extended back provides improved comfort and coverage, especially when bending or stretching, preventing the jacket from riding up.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not visible enough

Ensure reflective stripes are clean and not obstructed. For maximum visibility, always wear the jacket zipped up.

Water seeping through fabric

The jacket is water-resistant, not waterproof. For prolonged heavy rain, consider a waterproof outer shell. Ensure care instructions, particularly regarding tumble drying to maintain water repellency, are followed.

Zipper is difficult to use

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Clean the zipper teeth with a brush. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant if needed. Close zippers before washing.

Fit is too tight or loose

Adjust the hem using the elastic drawcord inside the hand pocket and adjust the cuffs. The hood also features vertical and horizontal adjustments.
