FAQs

What does EN ISO 20471:2013 Class 3 mean?

Class 3 is the highest level of visibility certification under this standard, indicating the garment has the most fluorescent material and retroreflective tape, providing maximum visibility. This applies to sizes S and larger for this t-shirt. Class 2 (for XS size) offers a lower, but still significant, level of visibility.

Is this t-shirt suitable for cold weather?

This long-sleeve t-shirt is primarily designed for visibility and comfort in moderate conditions. For cold weather, it can serve as a base layer, but additional insulating layers would be necessary for warmth.

Can I iron this t-shirt?

No, ironing is not recommended as it can damage the reflective materials and potentially melt the fabric. Always follow the tumble dry on low heat instruction.

What material is the t-shirt made of?

The t-shirt is made of 100% Polyester, incorporating 4-way stretch fabric for comfort and mobility.

How do I ensure I bought the right size?

Refer to the Helly Hansen sizing chart for accurate measurements. The 'Regular' fit type means it's designed for a standard fit, not too tight or too loose.

What are the benefits of the bluesign® certification?

The bluesign® certification means the materials used have been produced with responsible resource management and minimal environmental impact, ensuring safer conditions for workers and consumers.

Can this t-shirt be worn by both men and women?

Yes, the t-shirt is designed as 'Unisex', meaning it is suitable for all genders.

Troubleshooting

Visibility seems reduced after washing.

Ensure you followed the wash care instructions precisely, especially avoiding fabric softener and high heat ironing, which can degrade reflective elements.

Fabric feels less stretchy than before.

Verify that fabric softener was not used and that the garment was not over-dried at high temperatures. Gentle washing and low-heat drying are crucial for maintaining stretch.

Fit is uncomfortable or restrictive.

Double-check that the correct size was purchased. Refer to the sizing guide if necessary. Ensure the garment is worn as intended (e.g., not inside out).
