Troubleshooting

Vest does not appear sufficiently visible.

Ensure the vest is clean and free from dirt or stains, as this can obscure the reflective properties. Verify that all safety tapes are intact and not damaged. Ensure the vest is worn fastened and fits properly without excessive sagging.

Sizing feels too large or too small.

Refer to the product's size chart for precise chest measurements (XXL: 48.5/51 inches). Ensure the vest is worn over the intended layers of clothing to gauge the fit accurately. If consistently ill-fitting, consider exchanging for a different size or garment.

Reflective tapes are peeling or damaged.

This may indicate excessive wear or improper washing. For safety reasons, damaged reflective tapes compromise visibility. It is recommended to replace the garment if the tapes are significantly degraded.
