Frequently asked questions

Is the S488 flame resistant as well as waterproof?

No. This bib and brace is waterproof and hi-vis rated but carries no flame-resistant or thermal certification (the fabric is rated Not Thermal Rated). If you need FR protection, look at our Portwest FR range instead.

How waterproof is it in practice?

The fabric is EN 343 Class 4 rated, the highest water-resistance class in that standard, equivalent to withstanding 30,000mm of water pressure. Seams are taped to stop water getting in at the stitching.

Does the reflective tape and hi-vis rating survive washing?

Yes. Portwest tests the S488 to EN ISO 20471 Class 2 after 50 industrial washes, so the visibility rating holds up over the garment's working life.

What's the largest size available?

Sizes run from XS to 5XL, though the largest size varies by colour - Yellow/Navy and Yellow/Black go up to 5XL, Orange/Navy is available up to 4XL.

Can I wear this for rail trackside work?

The product carries a RIS 3279-TOM reference alongside its EN 343 and EN ISO 20471 certification, so check the specific requirements of your rail contract against this before ordering.

How many pockets does it have?

Seven in total - side pockets, a back patch pocket, a double rule pocket and a dedicated phone pocket, plus the standard bib pocket.

What colour options are available?

Yellow/Navy, Orange/Navy and Yellow/Black.
