FAQs

What material is the PRO RTX High Visibility Waistcoat made from?

The waistcoat is made from 100% polyester, a durable and lightweight synthetic fabric.

How do I determine the correct size?

Sizes are based on chest measurement. For example, a size 'S' typically corresponds to a 36-inch chest. Please refer to the specific size chart provided for accurate fitting.

Can this waistcoat be worn over thick clothing?

Yes, the unisex design allows it to be worn over various types of clothing, including thicker work jackets, depending on the size selected.

How should I wash the waistcoat to maintain its visibility?

Machine wash at a maximum of 40°C, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid harsh detergents and dry cleaning to preserve the reflective bands.

What does 'bound edges' mean?

Bound edges refer to the finished and reinforced edges of the garment, typically with a contrasting or self-colored trim, which adds durability and a neat appearance.

Are there any pockets on this waistcoat?

The product description does not specify pockets. This is a basic high-visibility garment focused on safety features like reflective bands and color.

Is this waistcoat suitable for all types of weather?

The waistcoat is designed for visibility and is lightweight. It offers minimal protection against rain or cold and is best worn over appropriate protective clothing for adverse weather conditions.

Troubleshooting

Reflective bands appear damaged or are peeling.

Inspect the washing instructions. Excessive heat or harsh detergents can damage reflective material. Follow the recommended care guidelines strictly. If damage is significant, consider replacement for continued safety.

Tear-release closure is not holding securely.

Ensure the closure surfaces are clean and free from lint or debris. If the closure has lost its grip, it may be worn out and require repair or replacement of the waistcoat.

Garment has lost its color vibrancy.

This can occur with prolonged sun exposure or repeated washing with harsh chemicals. Wash with similar colors in cool water and avoid direct sunlight when drying to preserve color.
