Ergodyne GloWear 8381 4-in-1 Hi-Vis Winter Bomber Jacket - Type R, Class 3

The GloWear 8381 is a Type R Class 3, 4-in-1 Hi-Vis Winter Bomber Jacket that can be worn multiple ways for ultimate adaptability in changing weather. Zip out the liner to wear it alone as a lightweight fleece jacket, zip off liner sleeves for wear as a vest, wear the shell on its own as a lightweight weatherproof layer or leave the liner zipped in to wear as a warm winter work jacket.

Ultra-warm 280g fleece traps heat for warmth in extreme cold, while a weatherproof 300D performance polyester shell with PU coating resists water and wind without compromising comfort or breathability. A storm flap covers the front zipper closure for added protection. Depending on weather or style preference, the detachable drawstring hood can be clipped on or removed. Hook & loop straps along the wrist cuffs adjust for a secure fit that keeps cold out. Built for long-lasting durability, this hi-vis jacket features a ripstop shell and dirt-hiding black panels.

CLO RATINGS

Insulation performance is measured by CLO ratings—which is a unit of thermal resistance that indicates insulating ability. The higher the CLO value, the higher the amount of warmth a piece of clothing provides.

To determine temperature ratings, CLO factors, Metabolic Equivalent of Task (MET) and the time or duration of a task are considered. MET levels are categorized into 3 groups:

• “Low” range (0-3 MET) // forklift driver, equipment operator
• “Moderate” range (3-6 MET) // picking & packaging, delivery drivers
• “Vigorous” range (>6 MET) // concrete work, tower climber

Some warehouses and facilities are more manual in nature, leading to higher MET levels, while others rely on automation, resulting in lower MET levels. GloWear 8381 4-in-1 Hi-Vis Winter Bomber Jacket has a CLO rating of 0.99 and is rated at a moderate work level in 10°F // -12°C temperatures for up to 5 hours.

This high visibility jacket is ideal for those working in road construction, transportation, baggage handling, municipalities or around moving vehicles. It's also great for outdoor recreational activities where you need to be seen, such as snowmobiling or hiking.
