# ZJ770 Women's Hi Vis Rail X Back 2 in 1 Softshell Jacket – Orange

Rail X Back Visibility with 2-in-1 Jacket-to-Vest Versatility – Women's ZJ770 Softshell Jacket

At a Glance

The ZJ770 Women's Hi Vis Rail X Back 2 in 1 Softshell Jacket is designed for rail and infrastructure teams needing high-visibility outerwear with greater versatility across changing working conditions.

Constructed from heavyweight 330 GSM 100% Oxford bonded polyester softshell, it provides a 5,000mm water-resistant rating together with a tailored women's fit.

The sleeves zip off to convert the jacket into a vest, while twin-hoop Bio Motion reflective tape and an X-back rail taping configuration provide distinctive visibility features for rail-focused workwear.

Why This Product Exists

Rail and infrastructure teams can experience significant changes in temperature and working conditions during the same shift. A conventional jacket provides coverage when conditions are cooler but can become unnecessarily warm as activity or temperature increases.

The ZJ770 addresses this with removable sleeves that allow one garment to function as either a softshell jacket or vest.

This versatility is combined with rail-focused X-back taping and Bio Motion tape configuration, creating a garment designed around both workplace visibility and changing wearer requirements.

Uniforms.com.au Expert Recommendation

Choose the ZJ770 when your women's rail or infrastructure team needs one outer garment that can transition between a full softshell jacket and vest while retaining its distinctive X-back and Bio Motion visibility configuration.

If workers require protection during sustained heavy rain, consider a purpose-built waterproof jacket with an appropriate waterproof rating and confirmed construction. The supplied specification describes the ZJ770 as water resistant at 5,000mm; it does not state that the garment is fully waterproof.

• Teams needing convertible jacket and vest outerwear

Buying Advice

The ZJ770's key advantage is its 2-in-1 construction. Rather than supplying separate softshell jackets and vests, businesses can provide one garment with sleeves that zip off when conditions become warmer or greater arm freedom is preferred.

The 330 GSM bonded softshell is relatively substantial, making the garment better suited to cooler conditions than lightweight hi-vis layers.

For wet-weather purchasing, pay particular attention to the distinction between water resistant and waterproof. The ZJ770 has a supplied water-resistant rating of 5,000mm, but the supplied specifications do not state that it is a fully waterproof or seam-sealed rain jacket.

What Does 2-in-1 Mean on the ZJ770?

The sleeves can be zipped off the garment, converting the full softshell jacket into a vest.

This gives the wearer the option of full arm coverage during cooler conditions and a vest configuration when conditions or work activity change.

What Is Bio Motion Reflective Tape?

The ZJ770 uses a twin-hoop Bio Motion tape configuration.

According to the supplied product specification, this configuration is designed to improve recognition of the human shape at distance.

What Is X-Back Rail Taping?

The rear of the garment uses an X-back rail taping configuration.

This distinctive reflective layout is a key design feature of the ZJ770 and should be considered when assessing the garment against the specific requirements of the rail workplace or project where it will be worn.

Workplace Scenarios

A rail maintenance worker may begin an early shift wearing the ZJ770 as a full softshell jacket, then remove the sleeves as temperatures rise or physical activity increases.

Infrastructure contractors working across exposed sites can benefit from the substantial 330 GSM construction while retaining the option to convert the garment into a vest.

For organisations outfitting women within larger rail teams, the tailored women's fit provides a dedicated alternative to relying entirely on unisex outerwear.

Storage & Practical Features

Two front hip pockets feature zip closures and covers designed to help keep stored items secure and dry.

A dedicated chest mobile phone pocket provides additional storage for an item workers may need to access regularly.

Adjustable cuff fasteners allow the sleeve opening to be adjusted to help keep out the elements when the jacket is being worn with its sleeves attached.

Branding Advice

Branding should be assessed carefully on rail and high-visibility garments because logo position, size and decoration method may interact with the garment's visible fabric area and reflective tape configuration.

The supplied information does not specify approved decoration methods or the effect of branding on any applicable compliance requirements.

For this reason, the intended company logo, placement and decoration method should be reviewed before production.

Care & Longevity

Specific washing, drying and reflective-tape care instructions were not included in the supplied information.

Follow the current manufacturer's garment care instructions to maintain the bonded softshell, reflective tape, zip-off sleeve system, water-resistant performance and overall garment construction.

Real World Applications

The ZJ770 is particularly useful for rail organisations wanting greater flexibility from their outerwear allocation.

Instead of treating jackets and vests as completely separate garments, the removable sleeves allow employees to adapt one piece of outerwear as conditions change.

The women's-specific fit can also help businesses create a broader uniform range that accounts for different wearer requirements while maintaining consistent rail-focused styling across the team.

Commercial Buying FAQs

Is the ZJ770 designed specifically for women?

Yes. The supplied specifications identify the ZJ770 as having a tailored women's fit.

Can the ZJ770 be worn as both a jacket and a vest?

Yes. The sleeves zip off, allowing the garment to convert from a full softshell jacket into a vest.

Is the ZJ770 waterproof?

The supplied specification gives the garment a 5,000mm water-resistant rating. It does not state that the jacket is fully waterproof or seam sealed, so it should not be represented as a waterproof rain jacket without additional manufacturer information.

Is this jacket suitable for rail workers?

The ZJ770 includes an X-back rail taping configuration and twin-hoop Bio Motion tape. Suitability for a particular rail operator, project or site should still be checked against that organisation's current uniform and safety requirements before ordering.

Can we add our company logo to the ZJ770?

Branding should be reviewed before production. The supplied information does not specify approved decoration methods or confirm how decoration may affect applicable high-visibility requirements.

Does the jacket have secure pockets?

Yes. It includes two front hip pockets with zip closures and covers, plus a chest mobile phone pocket.

Can we order this for our women's rail team?

The ZJ770 can be considered for women's rail and infrastructure uniform programs, subject to current sizing, stock availability and confirmation that it meets the specific requirements of your workplace.

Can we order a sample before placing a larger team order?

Yes. A sample can help assess fit, fabric weight, sleeve conversion, taping configuration and overall suitability before committing to a larger order. Samples are supplied as brand-new garments and are not free.

Can we reorder the same jacket later?

Repeat ordering can be supported subject to ongoing manufacturer availability. For long-term rail uniform programs, ongoing supply requirements should be discussed when ordering.
