The Portwest waterproof bomber jacket is an excellent choice for professionals seeking reliable protection in harsh weather conditions. This functional jacket is specifically designed for outdoor workers exposed to rain and cold during their daily activities. Thanks to the abrasion-resistant Oxford polyester outer fabric and reflective striping, the jacket offers both durability and increased visibility in the workplace, allowing you to continue working comfortably and safely in any conditions.
For which working conditions is the Portwest waterproof bomber jacket most suitable?
This jacket is ideally suited for work in cold and wet outdoor environments, such as construction, logistics, or infrastructure. Thanks to its EN 343 class 3:1 certification, the jacket provides excellent waterproofing up to 15,000 millimeters, while the taped seams completely prevent water penetration.
Furthermore, the jacket is certified according to the EN 342 standard for protection against cold down to -36 degrees Celsius. The fleece-lined collar and full inner lining effectively retain body heat during long workdays in freezing temperatures.
What does the EN 17353 Type B3 standard mean for this specific bomber jacket?
The EN 17353 Type B3 standard indicates that this garment is equipped with reflective elements that increase the wearer's visibility in low-light situations. Unlike full high-visibility jackets, this model uses strategically placed reflective striping on a dark background.
This ensures a professional and representative appearance, while still making you clearly visible to approaching traffic or during dusk. It is the ideal choice when full fluorescent signaling is not strictly required.
With seven practical storage pockets, including a dedicated phone pocket, a sleeve pocket, and an inner pocket, this jacket offers plenty of storage space. The elastic hem and sleeve storm cuffs ensure a comfortable fit.
