FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this jacket?

The jacket is designed to keep the wearer visible, safe, and dry in foul weather conditions, particularly for outdoor work environments.

What makes this jacket eco-conscious?

It is made from 100% recycled polyester and features a PFAS-free Texpel™ Splash Eco fabric finish.

How many pockets does the jacket have and what are they for?

The jacket features 8 pockets in total, including a zipped chest pocket, 2 side zip pockets, internal lower patch pockets, and a dedicated phone and pen holder pocket for ample storage.

Is the hood detachable?

No, the hood is designed to be 'pack away', meaning it can be stored neatly within the collar when not in use, rather than being fully detachable.

How should I wash the jacket to maintain its performance?

Machine wash at 40°C with liquid detergent, wash inside out, close all zippers, and tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid bleach and dry cleaning to preserve the waterproof and reflective properties.

What is the UPF rating of the fabric?

The fabric is rated UPF 40+, which means it blocks over 98% of harmful UV rays.

Does this jacket comply with industry safety standards?

Yes, it is certified to EN ISO 20471 and complies with RIS 3279-TOM for the rail industry (orange only). It is also CE certified.

What is the difference between water-resistant and waterproof?

This jacket is waterproof with taped seams, meaning it prevents water penetration. It is also extremely water-resistant due to its construction and finish, designed to bead water away from the fabric surface.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully waterproof.

Ensure all zippers are fully closed and the storm flap is secured. Check that the cuffs are tightened. For best results, re-apply a suitable waterproofing treatment periodically if the Texpel™ Splash Eco finish appears diminished.

Reduced visibility after washing.

Follow care instructions strictly. Reflective tape performance is certified up to 50 washes; significant reduction before this may indicate improper care or excessive wear.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Clean the zipper teeth with a small brush and apply a graphite pencil or wax to lubricate. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper mechanism.

Jacket feels too warm.

While designed for weather protection, it can be warm in milder conditions. Consider layering with lighter, breathable clothing underneath or opening the main zipper slightly for ventilation if conditions permit.
