Velilla 539007S women's stretch work coat: mandarin collar, press studs and semi-fitted cut
The women's version of the stretch coat with mandarin collar. 190 g/m² stretch twill with 4% elastane, classic length and long sleeves. It isn't the same garment as the men's 539006S: the pattern is different, with princess seams and a yoke designed for the female body, and sizing runs from XS to 2XL instead of S to 3XL. The women's short version is reference 539009S.
✅ Features
Women's pattern: front and back princess seams that shape the waist without reducing room at the shoulders or armholes.
Mandarin collar: no points or lapels and therefore no corners where dirt builds up. It's the collar required in many food industry specifications.
Press studs: let you open the coat in one pull in the event of a spill or splash.
4% elastane: the garment gives when you raise your arms and recovers its shape.
Safety seam at the back: gives way before the fabric tears if the coat gets caught.
Three pockets: one chest pocket and two lower pockets.
Wash at 60 °C. Do not regularly exceed this temperature.
Tumble dry at medium or low temperature.
Do not use chlorine bleach: it yellows white and destroys elastane.
Iron at medium temperature.
Suitable for industrial laundry at 60 °C with moderate drying.
💡 Tip: Don't order this coat by T-shirt size. The women's semi-fitted cut is shaped at the waist, so the useful reference is chest measurement, and if you'll wear a jumper or fleece underneath it's best to go up a size. When kitting out a mixed team, order the 539007S for women and the 539006S for men: they are different patterns, not the same coat with another label.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it the same coat as the 539006S?
No. The 539006S has a men's pattern and sizes S to 3XL. This 539007S has a women's pattern, with princess seams that shape the waist, and runs from XS to 2XL.
And the 539009S?
It's the women's short version, with the hem above the hip. This 539007S is classic length.
Which size should I order?
By chest measurement, not T-shirt size: the semi-fitted cut is shaped at the waist. If you'll wear a jumper or fleece underneath, go up a size.
Why a mandarin collar?
Because it has no points or lapels and therefore doesn't collect dirt in the corners. It's what many food industry specifications require.
Does it withstand industrial washing at 90 degrees?
The manufacturer specifies 60 °C. At 90 °C the elastane degrades. If the laundry works at 90 °C, choose the 539002 or the 539005, without elastane.
Can it be sterilised in an autoclave?
No. Elastane cannot withstand autoclave steam at 121-134 °C.
Can I use bleach on the white?
No. Chlorine irreversibly yellows white polyester and destroys the elastic fibre.
