Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between the Orange/Black and Yellow/Black versions?

Colour only - the specification is otherwise the same. Orange/Black meets RIS 3279-TOM for rail work, and only the Orange/Black version comes in an XXL; Yellow/Black runs L, XL and XXXL.

Is the PW244 suitable for metal-detector-controlled sites?

Yes. It's non-magnetic with nickel and ferrous-free fastenings and no exposed metal parts, so it suits sites that screen for metal.

Can I adjust the leg length?

Yes, the leg length extends from 31 to 33 inches, so one size can suit a range of heights without hemming.

Is the PW244 waterproof?

No, it carries no waterproof rating under EN 343. The Texpel finish resists stains and light spills, but for wet-weather work pair it with a waterproof outer layer.

How many pockets does it have?

Seven, including a chest pocket with a hook-and-loop closure, an ID pocket that can be worn visible or concealed, two back patch pockets and a double rule pocket.

Does the hi-vis rating hold up after washing?

Yes. It's certified to EN ISO 20471 after 50 wash cycles, so the reflective performance is tested to last through repeated laundering, not just out of the box.

Can the PW244 be embroidered or logo printed?

No, this product isn't set up for embroidery or logo printing.
