Product Information
Full details
This Blaklader 4993 Microfleece Jacket is designed for adult males seeking a durable and visible mid-layer for work or outdoor activities. Its key benefit is enhanced safety through high-visibility panels and reflective details, combined with the warmth and comfort of antipilling microfleece. A potential caveat is that its Hi-vis certification is not applicable, meaning it should not be solely relied upon for situations requiring certified high-visibility garments.

FAQs
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from 100% polyester, antipilling microfleece, brushed on both sides, weighing 170g/m².
Is this jacket certified for high visibility (Hi-vis)?
No, the Hi-vis certification is not applicable for this jacket. It features high-vis panels and reflectors for increased visibility but should not be used as a sole high-visibility garment where certification is required.
How should I wash the jacket?
Machine wash at 40 degrees Celsius. Do not tumble dry, iron, bleach, or dry clean.
Does the jacket have internal pockets?
Yes, it features two inner pockets in addition to the zippered front pockets.
What does 'antipilling' mean for the fleece?
Antipilling means the fabric is treated to resist the formation of small balls (pills) on the surface, ensuring the jacket retains its smooth appearance and feel over time.
Can I adjust the fit of the jacket?
Yes, the jacket has an extended back panel for better coverage, and both the bottom hem and cuffs have elastic bands for a snug and adjustable fit.
What is the purpose of the fleece-lined collar?
The fleece lining in the collar provides extra warmth and comfort around the neck area, especially in cooler conditions.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels tight or restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check the size chart if unsure. The elasticated cuffs and hem are designed for a snug fit, which may feel different from looser garments.
Reflectors appear to be fading
Follow the care instructions precisely, especially regarding washing and avoiding harsh chemicals or high heat. Avoid excessive abrasion on reflector areas.
Zipper is difficult to use
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Lubricating the zipper teeth with a small amount of wax or graphite can sometimes help.
