FAQs

What are the main benefits of this jacket?

The jacket offers excellent high visibility thanks to 3M Scotchlite reflective tape, protection from wind and rain with its waterproof outer shell and taped seams, and comfort with a micro fleece inner liner. It also features practical pockets and adjustable elements for a secure fit.

What safety standards does this jacket meet?

This jacket is certified to EN ISO 20471:2013 Class 3 and RIS-3279-TOM, which are key standards for high-visibility clothing, particularly in railway environments.

How should I clean and care for the jacket?

You can machine wash the jacket at 40°C. Avoid bleaching, ironing, and dry cleaning. Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Regular inspection of seams and tape is recommended.

Is the hood removable?

The hood is concealed, meaning it can be zipped away into the collar, but it is not removable.

What materials is the jacket made from?

The jacket is made from 100% polyester, with a soft shell outer fabric and a micro fleece inner liner.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

The fleece lining provides insulation for cooler conditions. For extreme cold, it is recommended to layer with additional insulating clothing underneath.

What is the purpose of the storm flap?

The full-length storm flap covers the main front zip, preventing wind and water from entering through the zipper area, thus enhancing the jacket's waterproof and windproof capabilities.

Troubleshooting

Reflective tape is peeling or damaged.

This can occur with improper washing or excessive wear. While minor peeling might not immediately affect visibility, significant damage compromises safety standards. Refer to care instructions and consider replacing the jacket if damage is extensive.

Jacket is no longer waterproof.

Check that all seams are intact and the main zip closure is fully engaged with the storm flap. Over time, DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coatings can wear off; re-applying a suitable DWR treatment may restore water resistance. Ensure no holes or tears are present.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the storm flap is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper. Lubricate the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant if it remains stiff. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Fleece liner feels too warm for the conditions.

This jacket is designed for cooler, wet, and high-visibility needs. For warmer weather, consider layering with lighter garments underneath or opting for a high-visibility shell without a fleece lining.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent visibility due to 3M Scotchlite reflective tape.
  • Effective protection against wind and rain with taped seams and storm flap.
  • Comfortable fleece lining for warmth.

Cons

  • May be too warm for mild weather conditions due to the fleece lining.
  • Concealed hood might not offer as much protection as a permanently attached hood in extreme weather.

  • Yellow color may not be suitable for all work environments.
