Portwest Ultimate Modular Hi-Vis 3-in-1 Rain Jacket

Product Overview

The BX323 Ultimate Modular Hi-Vis 3-in-1 Rain Jacket is a versatile and technically proficient solution for professionals who require adaptable safety wear. This garment provides two essential pieces of equipment in one: a robust outer rain jacket and a functional detachable vest. Engineered for high-stakes environments, the modular design allows for independent use of the vest or integrated use with the jacket, ensuring you remain visible and protected regardless of fluctuating weather conditions.

Key Features

• Detachable vest with radio loops and six pockets, providing extensive utility and the option for lightweight high-visibility coverage when the full jacket is not required.
• Comprehensive pocket configuration, including seven pockets on the jacket (five external and two internal) specifically designed to accommodate modern technology such as mobile phones and tablets.
• Segmented reflective tape applied to both the jacket and vest, which enhances visibility while maintaining the natural flexibility of the fabric for improved comfort during active movement.
• Helmet-compatible detachable hood, ensuring that head protection can be worn without compromising on weather resistance.
• Fully taped internal seams, which serve as a critical barrier against moisture ingress, ensuring the wearer remains dry in persistent rain.

Design & Performance

This is a substantial, well-engineered garment designed to withstand the rigours of outdoor work. The outer rain jacket features an adjustable hem and inner cuffs, which are essential for creating a secure seal against wind and rain, maintaining thermal comfort. The integration between the two garments is seamless; the vest can be neatly stowed within a jacket side pocket, ensuring it is always accessible for site-specific requirements. The use of a contrast yellow and black colour scheme is a practical design choice, placing darker fabric in high-soil areas to maintain a professional appearance for longer.

Customisation: Print & Embroidery

The BX323 is an excellent candidate for customisation, allowing you to present a unified corporate image. For a superior finish, embroidery is highly recommended for company logos or staff names on the chest, providing a durable and professional appearance that withstands frequent laundering. For larger branding requirements on the rear of the jacket or vest, our high-quality print services offer a bold and clear finish. Our in-house team in Telford has been handling such customisation since 1976, ensuring that your branding is applied with technical precision.

Use Cases

This 3-in-1 jacket is ideally suited for professionals in construction, civil engineering, and logistics who face unpredictable British weather. Its modularity makes it a perfect choice for supervisors and site managers who frequently transition between vehicle-based work, office environments, and active outdoor sites.

Practical Advice

When selecting your size, consider the layering required for your specific role. The adjustable hem is a useful feature for tailoring the fit to your body shape, which helps to prevent cold air from entering the garment. If you are frequently moving between tasks, the ability to stow the vest within the jacket pocket is an efficient way to manage your equipment.

Caring for your product

To preserve the technical performance and high-visibility properties of this jacket, it is important to follow careful maintenance procedures. Regular cleaning is necessary to prevent dirt from masking the reflective tape and degrading the waterproof coatings.

We recommend avoiding the use of biological detergents and fabric softeners. These chemical agents can damage the waterproof integrity of the taped seams and may dull the fluorescent pigment of the fabric, which could potentially reduce the effectiveness of the high-visibility protection.

Always allow the garment to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Subjecting the jacket to high temperatures in a tumble dryer or on a radiator can cause the reflective tape to crack and the internal waterproof membranes to fail, significantly shortening the lifespan of your professional equipment.
