Product Overview
The RT62 Hi-Vis Breathable Rain Bomber Jacket is a well-engineered piece of outerwear designed for those who require high visibility without sacrificing comfort or weather protection. This jacket strikes a balance between a lightweight feel and the robust performance needed to withstand wind and rain. Constructed from 300D Oxford weave polyester, it offers a professional appearance while serving as a reliable barrier against the elements, ensuring the wearer remains dry and noticeable on any site.
Key Features
300D Oxford Weave Fabric: The double PU coated polyester provides a substantial waterproof and windproof shield, ensuring you stay dry and warm in adverse conditions.
Breathable Mesh Lining: A mesh-lined body promotes airflow, preventing the build-up of internal moisture and heat during physically demanding tasks.
Detachable Concealed Hood: Offers versatile protection that can be deployed when the weather turns or tucked away for a cleaner aesthetic.
Fleece-Lined Collar: Adds a layer of warmth and prevents irritation around the neck, enhancing comfort throughout a long shift.
Side Elastication: Ensures a secure and comfortable fit that moves with the wearer, maintaining the classic bomber silhouette without restricting movement.
Design & Performance
This bomber jacket is built for durability and long-term use. The use of 100% Polyester 300D Oxford fabric with a stain-resistant finish means it can handle the rigours of a busy work environment while remaining easy to keep clean. The double PU coating is essential for maintaining waterproof integrity, while the breathable nature of the fabric ensures that the jacket doesn't become uncomfortable during active use. Performance is further enhanced by the mesh lining, which facilitates moisture management, making it suitable for roles where temperature regulation is critical.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The RT62 is designed with customisation in mind, featuring specific print access to ensure your branding can be applied without compromising the waterproof lining. For a professional and long-lasting finish, embroidery is the ideal choice for corporate logos and staff names, providing a textured, premium appearance. Alternatively, for larger, more vibrant graphics or safety messaging, print processes offer high visibility and clarity. At MyWorkwear, our Telford-based team has been perfecting these techniques since 1976, ensuring your uniform looks as professional as the service you provide.
Use Cases
This jacket is an essential garment for construction workers, roadside recovery teams, and warehouse staff who frequently move between indoor and outdoor environments. Its high-visibility orange colour and breathable nature make it particularly useful for site managers and logistics personnel who need to remain visible and comfortable regardless of the weather forecast.

Practical Advice
Given the bomber style and the inclusion of a mesh lining, this jacket is excellent for layering. In colder months, we suggest pairing it with a medium-weight fleece or sweatshirt. For the best fit, ensure you check the sizing; the side elastication provides some flexibility, but a correct initial fit is vital for maintaining freedom of movement while on the job.
Caring for your product
To ensure this jacket continues to provide maximum protection and visibility, it must be cared for correctly. We recommend a mild process wash at a maximum temperature of 40°C. Exceeding this temperature can damage the PU coating and reduce the effectiveness of the waterproof barrier.
Avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will degrade the fluorescent dyes and compromise the high-visibility standards. Similarly, this garment should not be dry cleaned or tumble dried; instead, it should be drip-lined dried. Excessive heat from a tumble dryer or iron will likely melt or warp the synthetic fibres and technical coatings.
Finally, please note that this garment has a maximum limit of 50 washes. Beyond this point, the reflective properties and fabric integrity may no longer meet safety certifications, and the jacket should be replaced to ensure continued site safety.
