The primary purpose is to provide high-visibility workwear that is also comfortable and durable, suitable for professionals working in various conditions.
The elastic reflective strips are designed to reflect light back towards the source, making the wearer more visible in low-light or dark conditions when illuminated by headlights or other light sources.
While the core design is consistent, the specific Hi-Vis certification class can vary by size. For example, sizes XS-S are Class 2, while larger sizes meet Class 3 requirements (refer to product specifications for exact details).
Yes, you can add a logo, but it must adhere to specific guidelines to maintain the EN ISO 20471 certification. The logo area is restricted, and it can only constitute a maximum of 50% of the total approved logo area.
UPF 40+ means the fabric is certified to block at least 97.5% of harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. This offers significant protection against sun exposure.
Machine wash at 40°C on a normal cycle, inside out, and with similar colors. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or use fabric softeners. Iron at a moderate temperature and consider professional dry-cleaning.
The hoodie is made from a blend of 50% cotton and 50% polyester. The inside is brushed for softness and warmth, while the outside is durable stretch polyester.
Ensure you are following the recommended washing instructions. Avoid harsh detergents or excessive rubbing of the reflective strips during cleaning. Prolonged exposure to certain chemicals can degrade reflective properties.
Verify that the garment was not washed at a temperature higher than 40°C. Avoid tumble drying, as heat can cause shrinkage in cotton blends. Air dry the hoodie instead.
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it's catching on fabric, carefully reposition the material. Lubricating the zipper teeth with a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant can help.
This can sometimes occur with cotton/polyester blends. Ensure you are not using fabric softeners, as they can break down fibers over time. Washing inside out can help preserve the brushed interior.
Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. No setup is required upon receipt. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal fit and performance.
Compatibility: The hoodie is designed for adult wear, specifically with a slim fit. It is suitable for various professional environments requiring high visibility. Logo placement is restricted to maintain EN ISO 20471 certification; consult specific guidelines for approved logo areas if customization is planned.
