Product Information

Full details

The SCAN Hi-Vis Holster Shorts are designed for adult male workers who require enhanced visibility and practical storage in their workwear. Their key benefit is compliance with high-visibility standards (Class 2 EN ISO 20471) combined with functional pocket design. A potential caveat is that the primary material, while durable, might be less breathable than specialized performance fabrics. These shorts offer a blend of durability, safety, and utility, featuring reflective tape, multiple pockets, reinforced seams, and a comfortable fit.

FAQs

What does EN ISO 20471 Class 2 certification mean?

This certification indicates that the garment meets specific standards for high-visibility clothing. Class 2 is a mid-level standard, suitable for environments where users need to be clearly visible but not in the highest risk categories (which would require Class 3).

Are these shorts suitable for all types of work?

These shorts are best suited for outdoor or industrial work environments where high visibility is a requirement for safety. They may be less ideal for indoor, office-based roles or activities requiring extreme flexibility.

How durable is the 80% polyester / 20% cotton blend?

This blend offers good durability, combining the strength and resistance of polyester with the comfort and breathability of cotton. The 245gsm weight further contributes to its robustness for workwear.

Can I wear these shorts in wet conditions?

While the fabric blend is durable, it is not inherently waterproof. For prolonged exposure to rain, additional waterproof outerwear is recommended. The material will dry relatively quickly.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Refer to the size chart provided by SCAN for waist measurements. The elasticated waistband offers some flexibility, but selecting the correct base size is important for comfort and proper positioning of pockets.

What is the benefit of the tunnel belt loop?

The tunnel belt loop helps to keep a work belt securely in place, preventing it from shifting or riding up, and ensuring the waistband remains at the optimal position for comfort and pocket accessibility.

How often should I replace these shorts?

Replacement frequency depends on usage and wear. Regularly inspect the reflective tape for degradation and seams for damage. If the high-visibility features or structural integrity are compromised, it's time for replacement.

Troubleshooting

Reflective tape is peeling or cracking.

This can be caused by excessive heat during washing or drying, or direct ironing on the tape. Follow the recommended care instructions carefully, using cool settings for washing and drying, and avoid direct ironing on the reflective surfaces.

Seams are coming undone.

Ensure the shorts are not overloaded in pockets, which can stress the seams. If seams fail due to manufacturing defects, contact customer support. For minor repairs, consider professional garment repair.

Fit is uncomfortable.

Adjust the elasticated waistband and ensure the belt is properly fastened through the tunnel loop. If the size is fundamentally incorrect, consider if a different size is available.

Reduced visibility after multiple washes.

Washing and drying cycles can naturally impact high-visibility materials over time. Adhering to the recommended low-heat care instructions will help extend the tape's effectiveness. Replace the garment if visibility is significantly compromised.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets high-visibility safety standards (EN ISO 20471 Class 2).
  • Durable fabric blend (polyester/cotton) suitable for tough jobs.
  • Ample storage with holster and cargo pockets.
  • Reinforced seams for extended product life.
  • Comfortable and adjustable waistband.

Cons

  • May be less breathable compared to 100% synthetic performance fabrics.
  • Color may fade with prolonged direct sunlight exposure.
  • Limited size range (specific to W37-38in in this variant).
  • Holster pocket depth may not suit all tools.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These shorts require no assembly or setup. They are ready to wear out of the package. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility:

These shorts are designed as standalone workwear. Their compatibility is primarily with other standard work gear such as safety boots, work gloves, and high-visibility tops. They are suitable for men's waist sizes, with this specific variant being W37-38 inches.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the integrity and visibility of the SCAN Hi-Vis Holster Shorts:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the fabric and reflective tape.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. High heat can damage the reflective material and shrink the fabric.
  3. Ironing: If ironing is necessary, use a cool iron setting. Do not iron directly on the reflective tape; place a cloth over the tape if ironing is essential.
  4. Cleaning: For spot cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature fading of the fabric and tape.
