FAQs
What does OEKO-TEX MADE IN GREEN certification mean?
This certification ensures that the textile product is produced sustainably and socially responsibly, is tested for harmful substances, and is made from certified materials. It guarantees a safe and environmentally conscious product.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
The jacket is unlined. While it can be layered, it is primarily designed for comfort and flexibility in industrial work environments. For very cold conditions, layering with thermal base layers or a warmer mid-layer is recommended.
How durable is the fabric against snags and tears?
The twill weave and material composition offer good durability for industrial use. The 'scratch-free' attribute specifically addresses surface abrasions, while the overall blend provides resistance to common wear and tear.
Can I wear this jacket in the rain?
The jacket is not designed to be waterproof or water-resistant. It offers protection against dust, dirt, and minor abrasions but is not suitable for significant exposure to rain.
What are the washing recommendations for this jacket?
The jacket is suitable for industrial laundry (EN ISO 15797). Machine wash according to these standards, preferably using a detergent suitable for industrial environments. Avoid bleach and dry cleaning.
Are the reflective details visible in all lighting conditions?
The reflective tape is designed to reflect light sources back to the source, significantly enhancing visibility in low-light or dark conditions when illuminated. They are most effective when light is shone directly on them.
What is the main material composition?
The main material is a twill fabric composed of 63% polyester, 33% cotton, and 4% elastolefin, providing a balance of durability, comfort, and stretch.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels restrictive.
Ensure the correct size has been selected. Adjust the waistband and sleeve cuffs for a more personalized fit. The 2-way stretch fabric is designed for flexibility, so significant restriction may indicate an improper size.
Reflective tape is peeling.
Review care instructions. Ensure the jacket is not being washed or dried at excessively high temperatures, or with harsh chemicals not suitable for industrial laundry standards. Gentle industrial washing and appropriate drying should maintain the tape's integrity.
Zipper is stiff.
Ensure the front cover is aligned correctly and not obstructing the robust two-way plastic zipper. Gently work the zipper up and down. If persistent, a small amount of graphite or wax can be applied to the zipper teeth.
