FAQs

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

The waistcoat is made from 100% polyester, known for its durability and lightweight properties.

How do I determine the correct size?

Please refer to the chest size guide provided: S - 36in, M - 40in, L - 44in, XL - 48in, XXL - 52in, 3XL - 56in, 4XL - 60in, 5XL - 62in, 6XL - 64in. It's recommended to measure your chest circumference and consider wearing it over other clothing.

Is this waistcoat suitable for all weather conditions?

This waistcoat is designed primarily for visibility. While the polyester offers some protection, it is not intended as a heavy-duty outer layer for extreme weather. It is best worn over appropriate clothing for the conditions.

Can I wash the waistcoat in a washing machine?

Yes, the waistcoat is machine washable at a maximum temperature of 40°C (104°F). Avoid bleach and dry cleaning.

How should I care for the reflective bands?

To maintain the reflectivity, follow the care instructions carefully: wash at 40°C, do not bleach, tumble dry on low, and iron on a low setting without ironing the reflective bands directly. Avoid dry cleaning.

What does 'tear release' closure mean?

A tear-release closure is designed to fasten securely but can be quickly and easily pulled apart or 'torn' open, often used for safety or convenience.

Are there different color options available?

Yes, besides white, this model is available in other colors such as orange, blue, and yellow, among others.

Troubleshooting

Reflective bands losing reflectivity.

Ensure washing instructions are followed precisely, particularly regarding temperature and avoiding harsh detergents or dry cleaning. Excessive washing or improper care can degrade reflective properties over time.

Tear-release closure not secure.

Check for lint or debris obstructing the tear-release mechanism. Clean the closure area gently. If damaged, the closure may need replacement.

Garment feels too tight or loose.

Refer to the size chart provided (S - 36in chest, M - 40in chest, etc.) and measure your chest circumference accurately. Consider the layers you will wear underneath when selecting a size. Exchange for a different size if necessary.

Stains are difficult to remove.

Pre-treat stains with a mild detergent before washing. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the fabric or reflective strips. Wash at the recommended temperature.
