Designed for the modern worker, the jacket features an ergonomic cut with pre-bent sleeves and Acti-Reach™ one-panel construction to improve arm and torso mobility when reaching, turning and twisting. CorePro™ Armour panels at the elbows and shoulders provide enhanced abrasion resistance in high-wear areas.
