FAQs

What does EN ISO 20471 Class 3 mean?

EN ISO 20471 is a European standard for high-visibility clothing. Class 3 is the highest classification, indicating the garment provides the maximum level of visibility required for the highest risk situations.

Is this garment suitable for all weather conditions?

This fleece is primarily designed for warmth in cooler conditions. While it offers some protection from light wind and rain, it is not a fully waterproof or windproof garment and may be too warm for high temperatures.

How do I ensure the Hi-Vis properties last?

Follow the care instructions strictly: machine wash at 40°C, do not bleach, tumble dry on low, and do not dry clean. Proper care will help maintain the integrity of the fabric and reflective materials.

What is the purpose of the contrast panels?

The contrast panels, typically in a darker color like navy, are designed to hide dirt and grime in areas that are most likely to get soiled during work, helping the garment maintain a cleaner appearance.

Can I wear this in the UK rail industry?

Yes, the orange version of this garment complies with RIS 3279-TOM, which is a specific standard for the UK rail industry. Ensure you are purchasing the correct color if this is a requirement for your work.

What does 'anti-pill finish' mean?

An anti-pill finish is a treatment applied to the fabric to prevent the formation of small balls or 'pills' on the surface that can occur with friction during wear and washing. It helps the garment look newer for longer.

What does 50+ UPF rated fabric protect against?

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A 50+ UPF rating means the fabric blocks over 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation, providing excellent protection against sunburn and long-term skin damage.

Troubleshooting

Reduced visibility of reflective tape

Ensure the reflective tape is clean and free from dirt or debris. Follow the recommended washing instructions carefully to avoid damage.

Fleece pilling excessively

Although designed with an anti-pill finish, excessive abrasion can still cause pilling. Ensure the garment is washed inside out and avoid washing with abrasive materials. If minor pilling occurs, a fabric shaver can be used.

Garment feels too warm

This fleece is designed for warmth. For milder conditions, consider wearing it unzipped or layering with a lighter base layer. It may not be suitable for very warm weather.

Incorrect sizing

The fit is intentionally relaxed and sizing is generous. Consult the size chart provided by Portwest and compare measurements before purchasing. If the size is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size based on the retailer's policy.
