FAQs

What does 'Isotex 10000' mean?

Isotex 10000 refers to the fabric's waterproof rating, meaning it can withstand a water pressure of 10,000mm. It also indicates a breathability rating of 10,000g/m²/24hrs, allowing water vapor to escape.

Is this jacket suitable for cold weather?

The jacket provides windproof and waterproof protection, which helps retain body heat. While it is not insulated, it can be layered with warmer clothing underneath for cold conditions.

What safety standards does this jacket meet?

This jacket conforms to EN ISO 20471:2013 + A1:2016 Class 2 for high visibility clothing, EN343:2003 A1:2007 Class 3:3 for protection against rain, and RIS-3279-TOM, a UK rail industry standard for high-visibility warning clothing.

How many pockets does the jacket have?

The jacket features a total of three zip pockets: one on the chest and two on the lower body.

Can the hood be detached?

No, the hood is a grown-on technical hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket.

What is the best way to clean the jacket to maintain its performance?

Machine wash at 40°C with zippers closed and dark colours washed separately. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat and iron on a low setting. Do not dry clean.

Troubleshooting

Jacket appears less waterproof over time.

Ensure the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish is maintained. Re-apply a DWR treatment suitable for waterproof fabrics if necessary, following product instructions. Ensure all seams and zippers are properly closed during washing.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax stick designed for zippers to help them slide smoothly.

Reflective stripes are peeling or damaged.

Avoid harsh detergents and high heat when washing. If minor peeling occurs, do not attempt to force it. Excessive damage to reflective elements may compromise safety standards.

Jacket feels clammy or not breathable.

Ensure inner layers are moisture-wicking. Check that all vents (if any) are open and that the fabric is not compromised by dirt or residue. Wash according to care instructions to restore breathability.
