Troubleshooting

Vest does not feel secure when worn

Ensure the front zip is fully closed. If the vest is too large, consider a smaller size for a better fit over your work clothing.

Reflective tape appears to be losing reflectivity

Check care label instructions and ensure washing and drying procedures have been followed correctly. Excessive heat or harsh chemicals can degrade reflective properties over time. For best results, avoid dry cleaning and excessive ironing.

Pockets are too small for specific items

Review the pocket dimensions if possible before purchase. The vest is designed for standard items like phones, pens, and radios; larger equipment may not fit.
