Portwest S280 Hi-Vis Cotton Comfort Contrast T-Shirt - Orange/Black - M

The 'Cotton Comfort' designation refers to the fabric blend, which has a high cotton content (55%) combined with polyester (45%). This creates a fabric that is soft, breathable, and durable, offering superior comfort for extended wear.

The t-shirt is certified to EN ISO 20471 Class 2 and RIS 3279-TOM (for orange). This makes it suitable for many high-risk environments, but always check specific workplace safety regulations to ensure the required visibility class is met.

The garment is certified to EN ISO 20471 after 50 washes. Adhering strictly to the care instructions is crucial to maintain these properties for the rated duration.

Yes, the moisture-wicking fabric and high cotton content help keep you cool and dry. However, as it is long-sleeved and features contrast panels, it may feel warmer than a short-sleeved, single-color t-shirt in extreme heat.

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A rating of 40+ means the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's harmful UV radiation, providing excellent protection for the skin.

Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, and do not iron directly on the reflective tape. Tumble dry on low heat and iron on a medium setting, being careful around the tape areas.

The contrast panels are designed to conceal dirt and stains, helping the garment maintain a cleaner appearance throughout the workday. They also contribute to the overall two-tone, high-visibility design.

This specific model (S280) is available in various sizes (S-XXXL) and colors including Orange and Yellow, often with secondary contrast colors like Black or Blue. Please refer to the product listing for specific availability.

Ensure washing is done strictly according to the care instructions. Over-washing, using harsh detergents, or incorrect drying/ironing methods can degrade the reflective properties and fluorescent colors. The certification is valid for 50 washes; track usage if necessary.

Confirm the fabric is not saturated with sweat. While moisture-wicking, excessive perspiration can still lead to a feeling of dampness. Ensure the garment is not too tight, as a comfort fit allows for better air circulation.

Avoid abrasive cleaning methods or excessive heat during washing and drying. If damage occurs, the garment's high-visibility rating may be compromised. Consider replacing the garment if critical for safety compliance.

While designed to minimize dirt appearance, heavy or specific types of stains may still be visible. Pre-treat tough stains before washing. Use appropriate stain removers suitable for cotton-polyester blends.
