The Portwest T161 is an overhead high-visibility rain jacket for outdoor work in wet and windy weather, including rail work in the orange version. It is made from Portwest Extreme 3-layer stretch fabric, which is waterproof, windproof and breathable. The soft-touch fabric stays light and moves with you.
Its design suits active work. Stretch panelling, an Acti-Reach panel and pre-bent sleeves help when you reach, turn and twist. Radio loops, an ID card holder and a tool pocket keep essential kit close to hand.
