FAQs

What material is the Mascot Accelerate Safe Hoodie made of?

The hoodie is made from a blend of 60% cotton and 40% polyester. The inside is brushed for extra warmth and softness, while the cotton blend ensures moisture absorption.

What does the EN ISO 20471 certification mean?

This certification indicates that the garment meets European standards for high-visibility clothing. Class 3 offers the highest level of visibility, suitable for conditions where maximum conspicuity is required. Note that sizes XS-S are certified to Class 2.

Can I add a company logo to this hoodie?

Yes, you can add a logo, but it must not exceed 50% of the total approved logo area on the front or back to maintain the EN ISO 20471 certification.

How should I wash and care for this hoodie?

The hoodie should be machine washed at 40°C on a normal cycle, without bleach. Do not tumble dry; air dry instead. Iron at a moderate temperature. Professional dry-cleaning is also an option.

Is this hoodie suitable for cold weather?

Yes, the brushed inside makes it warm and soft to wear, and the blend of cotton and polyester provides good insulation, making it suitable for cooler conditions.

What is the benefit of the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certification?

This certification ensures that the product has been tested for harmful substances and is therefore safe for human health.

Does the fit allow for comfortable movement?

Yes, the hoodie features a modern, close fit that is designed to provide great freedom of movement, with ribbed cuffs and waist for a secure fit.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it continues to be stiff, check for any fabric caught in the teeth. Applying a small amount of graphite from a pencil to the zipper teeth can help lubricate it.

Shrinking after washing.

Ensure you are washing at the recommended 40°C and avoid tumble drying, which can cause shrinkage. Air dry the hoodie instead.

Reflective strips losing reflectivity.

Follow the care instructions strictly. Avoid harsh detergents, bleach, and excessive heat during washing and drying, as these can degrade the reflective material over time.

Color fading.

Wash the hoodie inside out with similar colors. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying, as this can accelerate fading.
