Product Information

Full details

This Blaklader 3338 Hi-Vis Polo Shirt is designed for adult males working in environments requiring high visibility and comfort. Its key benefit is providing excellent visibility with UV protection and moisture-wicking properties, while the main caveat is its specific certification class which might not meet all high-risk safety standards. This polo shirt features tailored reflective transfers, a rib-knitted collar, and a button neck, crafted from 100% polyester pique fabric.

FAQs

What does EN ISO 20471 Class 1 certification mean?

This certification indicates the garment meets minimum requirements for visibility in lower-risk environments. It specifies the amount of fluorescent background material and retroreflective material required.

Can this shirt be worn in high-risk work areas?

While it provides high visibility, Class 1 certification is typically for lower-risk situations. Always consult your workplace safety guidelines to ensure this garment meets the specific requirements for your role and environment. Higher classes (Class 2 or 3) are often needed for more hazardous conditions.

How effective is the UV protection?

The shirt is certified UPF 40+, meaning it blocks at least 97.5% of the sun's UV radiation. This offers significant protection during prolonged sun exposure.

How do I ensure the anti-odour feature remains effective?

The anti-odour effect is built into the fabric. Proper washing without fabric softeners helps maintain its effectiveness. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the treatment.

What is the difference between this polo and a standard polo shirt?

This polo shirt is specifically designed for work environments with high-visibility features (fluorescent colors, reflective tape), UV protection, moisture-wicking, and anti-odour properties, which are not typically found in standard casual polo shirts.

Is the Blåkläder print on the shoulder functional or decorative?

The Blåkläder print on the shoulder is primarily decorative, indicating the brand. It does not affect the shirt's safety or performance features.

What is the recommended way to wash this shirt to maintain its properties?

Wash at 40°C in a normal wash cycle. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron directly on the reflective elements. Do not dry-clean.

Troubleshooting

Reflective tape peeling or losing adhesion

Ensure washing and ironing instructions are strictly followed. Avoid high heat and direct ironing on the tape. If damage has occurred, the tape may need professional repair or replacement, though this is uncommon with proper care.

Shirt feels damp after activity

Verify that the garment is not too tight, as this can restrict airflow. Ensure the fabric is not saturated beyond its moisture-wicking capacity. Allow for natural drying post-activity.

Odours persist despite washing

Ensure the shirt is washed at the recommended temperature (40°C) with a standard detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, which can impede moisture-wicking and anti-odour treatments. Ensure the shirt is fully dried.

Reduced visibility of reflective elements

Check for dirt or grime buildup on the reflective tape. Clean gently with a damp cloth. If the tape is damaged or worn from excessive use, it may require replacement for optimal safety.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent visibility due to high-contrast colors and reflective tape.
  • Comfortable and breathable, suitable for long working hours.
  • Moisture-wicking fabric keeps the wearer dry.
  • UV protection adds an extra layer of safety for outdoor tasks.
  • Anti-odour properties maintain freshness throughout the day.
  • Durable construction with reinforced seams.

Cons

  • Class 1 certification may not be sufficient for all high-risk environments.
  • 100% polyester material might not be preferred by everyone for a natural feel.
  • Limited pocket options compared to some work shirts.
  • Specific washing instructions need to be followed to maintain performance.
  • The fit may be looser than tailored shirts, particularly in larger sizes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This polo shirt requires no setup; it is ready to wear out of the packaging. It is designed to be compatible with standard workwear ensembles and can be layered under jackets or vests. To maintain its performance and reflective properties:

  • Washing: Wash at 40°C using a normal wash cycle. Avoid bleaching.
  • Drying: Do not tumble dry. Air dry to preserve fabric integrity and reflective elements.
  • Ironing: Do not iron directly on the reflective transfers. If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting and iron on the reverse side.
  • Professional Care: Do not dry-clean.
