Velilla 306005 high-visibility soft shell jacket: class 3, the most protective in the range
This is the garment that solves the tricky case: class 3 to EN ISO 20471 in a single garment, with no need to combine pieces. Three-layer soft shell with TPU membrane, 96% polyester and 4% elastane outer fabric of 280 g/m², fleece lining and reflective tapes on the torso, shoulders and sleeves.
✅ Features
Class 3 to EN ISO 20471: the highest level of the standard; it is the class usually required for work on roads open to traffic and at night.
Three layers with TPU membrane: wind-resistant, water-repellent outer layer, intermediate membrane and fleece lining; breathable.
Reflective tapes on torso, shoulders and sleeves: the shoulder tapes are the ones a driver sees from above, from a truck cab.
Reverse zip front closure with an internal folded placket covering it at the top.
Five pockets: three welt pockets with reverse zip and two inside patch pockets.
Adjustable hook-and-loop cuffs.
👷 Suitable for
Road maintenance and signage, including at night.
Tow trucks, roadside assistance and emergency services.
Civil engineering and railway work requiring class 3.
Airports and aprons.
Spring, autumn and mild winters, as an outer garment.
Colours: fluorescent yellow and fluorescent orange
Sizes available at Vetonek: S, M, L, XL, 2XL and 3XL
Pockets: five (three outer zipped, two inside patch)
🧺 Care
Machine wash at low temperature; close the zip before washing.
No fabric softener: it clogs the TPU membrane and the garment stops breathing.
No chlorine bleach and no dry cleaning.
Do not iron over the reflective tapes or the soft shell.
Air dry; high heat damages the membrane.
💡 Tip: watch out for the difference between this one and the two-tone version (306001): although they look like the same garment, the two-tone one is class 2 and this plain one is class 3. If the work is on the road or at night, this is the one that complies on its own. And a warning about rain: soft shell is water-repellent, not certified waterproof; if it is really going to rain, the garment you need is the 306004 parka (class 3 with EN 343).
