EN ISO 20471 is a European standard for high-visibility clothing. Class 3 is the highest class, indicating the garment provides the maximum level of visibility required for the riskiest work environments and situations.
While marketed towards men, the Blaklader 3564 Hi-Vis Half-Zip Sweatshirt features a design and material that is generally suitable for any gender. Checking the specific measurements against a size chart is recommended for the best fit.
The reflective tape is designed to be durable and maintain its reflectivity through industrial washing processes (EN ISO 15797). However, excessive abrasion or improper care can eventually affect its performance.
The 240 g/m² piqué fleece offers a good level of warmth for moderate conditions. For very cold winter environments, it is recommended to wear it as a layer over thermal base layers or under a heavier insulating jacket.
Piqué fleece has a textured surface (often resembling a honeycomb or waffle pattern) due to its knitting technique, while regular fleece is typically smoother. Both offer warmth and comfort, but piqué can sometimes offer better breathability and moisture management.
The D-ring is typically made of durable plastic or metal. It requires no special care beyond ensuring it is not subjected to excessive force. Clean it with a damp cloth if necessary during regular garment washing.
The garment is certified for industrial laundry according to EN ISO 15797. Specific industrial laundry facilities will follow their protocols, but generally, this involves controlled washing, drying, and finishing processes designed to maintain garment integrity and performance standards.
Ensure you are following the recommended washing temperature and avoiding harsh chemicals or fabric softeners. Industrial laundry certifications suggest it should maintain performance, but improper care can degrade materials.
Gently try to work the zipper up and down. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Consult the Blaklader size chart for accurate measurements. Consider the fit intended for workwear, which may allow for layering underneath. If the fit is significantly off, check if you received the correct size ordered.
While piqué fleece is durable, excessive friction can cause pilling. Ensure you are washing it correctly and avoid abrasive surfaces. Gentle washing and air drying can help preserve the fabric's texture.
Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure it is the correct size before wearing. The half-zip allows for easy adjustment of the neckline.
Compatibility: Certified according to EN ISO 20471 Class 3, making it compatible with safety regulations for high-visibility clothing in many industries. It is designed for adult wear.
