FAQs

Are knee pads included with the trousers?

No, knee pads are not included. They are available separately and can be inserted into the designated knee pad pockets.

What are the specific safety standards these trousers meet?

These trousers conform to EN ISO 20471 Class 2 and RIS-3279 (Rail Standard), ensuring high visibility and safety compliance for relevant industries.

How should I wash and care for these trousers?

Machine wash at a moderate temperature (e.g., 40°C), do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and iron on a low setting. Avoid dry cleaning and harsh detergents.

What is the benefit of the Teflon coating?

The Teflon coating provides resistance to dirt and light showers, helping to keep the trousers cleaner for longer and offering some protection against moisture.

What material are the trousers made from?

The trousers are made from a 275gsm fabric blend of 80% Polyester and 20% Cotton, with a Teflon coating.

Can these trousers be worn in all weather conditions?

They are suitable for resistance to light showers. For heavy rain, additional waterproof gear would be necessary. They may be warm in very hot climates due to the fabric blend.

What does 'Class 2' mean for EN ISO 20471?

Class 2 is a specific level of high-visibility performance under the EN ISO 20471 standard, indicating a certain amount of fluorescent and retroreflective material, suitable for environments with moderate risks.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel tight or restrictive.

Adjust the partially elasticated waistband. Ensure you have selected the correct size; check the sizing chart if unsure. Consider if knee pads are excessively bulky.

Reflective tape is peeling or damaged.

Avoid high heat when ironing or tumble drying. If damage is significant, consider replacing the trousers as visibility is compromised.

Dirt or stains are difficult to remove.

Pre-treat stains before washing. Use a mild detergent. The Teflon coating helps with minor dirt, but heavy soiling may require specific cleaning agents. Avoid harsh scrubbing.

Zipper is difficult to operate.

Ensure the fabric is clear of the zipper track. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Lubricating the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or wax can help.
