What Sets the RG491 Apart

A Hybrid Build for Active Work

Stretch fabric, softshell panels and insulation are placed where they are most useful: stretch for movement, softshell on the sleeves and sides for fit, and Warmloft on the chest and back for core warmth.

Segmented Reflective Tape

Heat-applied segmented tape on strategic panels allows the fabric to flex more than continuous tape.

Rail-Certified Orange Option

Ideal For

• Railway and rail infrastructure teams, using the Black/Orange colourway

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the RG491 suitable for rail work?
The Black/Orange colourway is certified to RIS-3279-TOM as well as EN ISO 20471 Class 2. Check your employer's, principal contractor's or project requirements before ordering for a specific rail application.

Is it waterproof?
No. It has a durable water-repellent finish that handles light rain, but it is not a waterproof jacket. For a waterproof option, see the Hi-Vis X-Pro Waterproof Shell Jacket (RG483).

How is it different from the X-Pro softshell?
The Hi-Vis X-Pro 3-Layer Softshell Jacket (RG478) is a membrane softshell; the RG491 adds Warmloft insulation on the chest and back.

Do you have a Class 3 option?
The Hi-Vis Pro Contract Ablaze 2-Layer Softshell (RG473) and the Hi-Vis Pro Contract Dover Jacket (RG477) are Class 3 jackets.

Where should the logo go?
Left-chest embroidery is the usual choice, and print suits larger or back designs. Confirm placement before production, because seams, pockets and reflective tape limit the available space.

How should I wash it?
Cool machine wash with Regatta Isotex cleaner or pure soap. Do not bleach or dry clean. Tumble dry on a low setting, cool iron if needed, wash dark colours separately and do not store it damp.
