FAQs
What material is the vest made of?
The vest is made from 100% Polyester with a weight of 160gsm.
How should I determine the correct size?
Refer to the chest measurements provided: S/M - 37/38.5”, L/XL - 45/46.5”, 2XL - 48.5/51”. The vest is designed for a generous fit to be worn over other garments.
Can this vest be worn by men and women?

How do I wash the safety vest?
Machine wash at a low temperature (30-40°C) with similar colours. Do not bleach or use fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not iron.
What is the purpose of the black bound edges?
The black polyester bound edges provide a neat finish and enhance the overall durability of the vest.
How effective are the safety tapes?
The 50mm sewn-on safety tapes are designed to reflect light and significantly improve visibility, especially in low-light conditions. Their effectiveness is maintained when the garment is clean and worn fastened.
Can this vest be worn as a standalone garment?
No, this vest is designed to be worn as an over-garment, meaning it should be worn on top of other clothing for safety and visibility.
Troubleshooting
Vest does not feel secure when worn.
Ensure the vest is fully fastened using its closure. If it remains loose, consider ordering a smaller size or ensuring you are wearing appropriate layers underneath.
Reflective tapes appear less effective.
Clean the vest according to care instructions, paying attention to the reflective tapes. Avoid harsh detergents or excessive heat during washing and drying. Ensure the vest is worn fastened.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
Avoid using fabric softeners. If stiffness persists, try a second rinse cycle on a low temperature. Ensure the garment is not dried on high heat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Compatible with most standard workwear and casual clothing. It is intended as an outer layer.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash at a low temperature (e.g., 30-40°C) with similar colours. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the reflective properties and fabric.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Avoid high heat, which can degrade the material and reflective tapes.
- Ironing: Do not iron. High heat can melt the polyester and damage the reflective tapes.
- Maintenance: To maintain effectiveness, always wear the garment fastened and keep it clean. Dirt and grease can obscure the reflective tapes, reducing their performance. Regular inspection for wear and tear is recommended.
