R476X Printable Ripstop Safety Softshell Jacket – Result Safeguard

The Result Safeguard R476X Printable Ripstop Safety Softshell Jacket is a tough, professional Class 2 hi-vis softshell designed for demanding outdoor work where visibility, durability, warmth and weather protection all matter.

Built from a substantial 310gsm three-layer mechanical-stretch construction, the R476X combines a durable 100% ripstop polyester outer, a waterproof and windproof TPU membrane, and a soft polyester microfleece inner layer. The ripstop outer helps provide the durability expected from a working jacket, while the fleece lining adds warmth and comfort for longer shifts outdoors.

The jacket also features strong Oxford polyester shoulder panels and black contrast areas, designed to help conceal everyday dirt and grime — a particularly practical feature for construction, engineering, infrastructure and maintenance teams.

Reflective printed bands around the body, sleeves and shoulders provide the required high-visibility design, while the full-length YKK zip, stand-up collar, chin guard and zipped pockets give the jacket the practical features workers expect from serious workwear.

The R476X is certified to EN ISO 20471:2013+A1:2016 Class 2, while the Fluorescent Orange/Black version also carries RIS-3279-TOM Issue 2:2019 Class 2 certification for applicable railway environments.

It is also specifically designed for professional garment decoration, making it a strong option when certified hi-vis protection needs to become part of a consistent branded workwear uniform.

Why Choose the R476X for Your Business?

Built Around Ripstop Durability

The R476X uses a 100% ripstop polyester outer layer.

Ripstop construction is particularly useful in workwear because its woven structure is designed to help resist the spread of small tears and everyday damage.

For workers operating around tools, machinery, rough surfaces and construction environments, that makes the R476X a more purposeful choice than a lightweight hi-vis softshell.

A Substantial 310gsm Softshell

At 310gsm, the R476X has a substantial feel.

Its three-layer construction combines:

• Ripstop polyester outer
• TPU waterproof/windproof membrane
• Polyester microfleece inner

This gives the jacket a useful combination of durability, warmth and weather protection without turning it into a bulky padded winter coat.

Waterproof Membrane

The current Result specification identifies the central TPU membrane as waterproof to 5000mm, breathable to 600g/m²/24h and windproof.

That gives the R476X useful protection from wet and windy conditions while maintaining the flexibility associated with a softshell.

Warm Microfleece Lining

The inner layer is made from 100% polyester microfleece.

This adds warmth and gives the inside of the jacket a softer, more comfortable feel against the wearer.

For workers spending long periods outdoors, this is a meaningful advantage over an unlined hi-vis shell.

Class 2 Hi-Vis Certification

The R476X is certified to EN ISO 20471:2013+A1:2016 Class 2.

This makes it suitable for a wide range of workplaces where Class 2 high visibility is required.

As with all PPE, the correct garment should be selected according to the employer's risk assessment and the specific requirements of the working environment.

RIS-3279-TOM Orange Option

The Fluorescent Orange/Black version is certified to RIS-3279-TOM Issue 2:2019 Class 2.

That makes it particularly relevant to contractors and businesses operating within applicable UK railway environments.

It also creates a natural cross-selling opportunity with your other RIS-3279-compliant garments.

Black Contrast Panels Help Hide Grime

This is one of the details I particularly like about the R476X.

The strong black Oxford contrast panels are positioned in areas likely to pick up everyday dirt and grime. Result specifically identifies these panels as helping to mask grime.

For businesses operating in construction, engineering, utilities, transport and infrastructure, that's not just cosmetic — it can help the garment maintain a professional appearance throughout its working life.

Reflective Bands Designed Into the Jacket

The R476X uses soft-feel printed reflective body bands around the body, sleeves and shoulders.

The reflective detailing is integrated into the garment rather than relying solely on traditional bulky sewn tape, helping maintain the softshell's more flexible appearance and feel.

Practical Zipped Storage

The jacket has two front zipped pockets plus a zipped right-chest pocket, giving workers secure storage for everyday essentials.

That makes the R476X more useful as an everyday working jacket rather than simply an outer visibility layer.

YKK Full-Length Zip and Chin Guard

The full-length YKK zip runs through the stand-up collar and incorporates a chin guard.

This provides a more comfortable finish around the neck while helping protect the wearer from wind and colder conditions.

Designed for Professional Branding

The R476X is tag-free and ready for decoration, with access provided for professional garment branding.

It supports direct print, transfer and embroidery, although Result recommends testing inks and equipment for compatibility with the fabric before production.

That makes it particularly suitable for companies wanting their hi-vis PPE to form part of a recognisable branded uniform.
