FAQs

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

The waistcoat is made from 100% polyester.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Refer to the chest size guide provided: M corresponds to a 40-inch chest. It is designed to be worn over other clothing, so ensure there is enough room for comfort.

How should I clean the waistcoat?

Machine wash at a maximum of 40°C, do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and iron on a low setting. Do not dry clean.

Are the reflective bands durable?

The reflective bands are designed for durability but their effectiveness can be reduced by improper washing or excessive wear. Follow care instructions to maximize their lifespan.

Is this waistcoat suitable for all types of work?

It is designed for general high-visibility needs in various work environments. For specific industries with stringent safety regulations, always ensure this garment meets all required standards.

What does 'bound edges' mean?

Bound edges refer to the fabric finishing along the openings (like the armholes and bottom hem). For solid colours, it uses self-coloured binding, providing a neat and durable edge.

Can I wear this in very cold weather?

This waistcoat is primarily for visibility. For cold weather, it should be worn as part of a layering system, over appropriate thermal clothing.

Troubleshooting

Reflective bands losing reflectivity.

Ensure you are following the recommended washing and care instructions. Avoid harsh detergents, excessive heat during drying, and dry cleaning, as these can damage the reflective material.

Tear-release closure not holding securely.

Check the closure for lint or debris that might be preventing a secure grip. Clean the hook-and-loop surfaces gently with a brush. If the closure is worn out, consider replacing the waistcoat.

Garment feels uncomfortable or stiff.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The waistcoat is designed to be worn over other clothing; verify adequate space for comfort. Washing the garment once according to instructions may soften the material.
