The jacket is designed for professionals working in winter conditions, prioritizing high visibility, warmth, mobility, and protection against cold and rain.

Is the hood detachable?

Yes, the hood is detachable and designed to be helmet-compatible for added versatility and safety.

How do I ensure the jacket remains water repellent?

After washing, tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting. This process helps reactivate the garment's water-repellent finish. Avoid using fabric softener.

What safety certifications does this jacket meet?

The jacket meets EN ISO 20471:2013 Class 3 for high visibility, EN 343:2019 Class 3,1 for protection against rain, and EN 342:2017 for cold protection.

Can I wear this jacket over other layers?

Yes, the jacket is designed to be layered. Its features like adjustable hem and cuffs allow for fitting over other garments while maintaining comfort and mobility.

How should I clean the jacket?

Machine wash in lukewarm water at 40°C max, with similar colours. Use liquid detergent. Close all zippers and fasteners before washing. Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean. Tumble dry on low heat.

What materials are used in the jacket?

The shell is 100% Polyester. The lining is 100% Polyamide, and the insulation in the sleeves and body is 100% Polyester (Recycled).

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer water repellent.

Tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting to reactivate the water-repellent treatment. Ensure no fabric softener was used during washing.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush. Ensure no fabric or debris is caught in the zipper. A small amount of graphite from a pencil can sometimes lubricate the teeth.

Fit feels restrictive in certain movements.

Ensure all adjustable elements (hem, cuffs, hood) are properly loosened before movement. The articulated sleeves are designed for mobility, but significant adjustments to other areas might be needed for specific tasks.

Visible wear on reflective stripes.

Avoid abrasive cleaning methods and excessive ironing directly on the stripes. Follow the recommended washing and drying procedures carefully.
