DNC 3998 – Hi Vis Cross Back 2 Tone D/N “6 in 1” Contrast Jacket

DNC 3998 – Hi Vis Cross Back 2 Tone D/N “6 in 1” Contrast Jacket

The DNC 3998 Hi Vis Cross Back 2 Tone Day/Night “6 in 1” Contrast Jacket is one of the most versatile, heavy-duty, and safety-compliant workwear options on the Aussie market. Designed to adapt to all weather conditions and a variety of work environments, this jacket combines comfort, practicality, and visibility — making it the perfect companion for tradies, construction crews, logistics workers, and anyone who spends long hours outdoors.

Constructed from high-quality 200D polyester/PVC fabric, the DNC 3998 provides superior waterproof protection with its fully seam-sealed outer shell. This ensures that no moisture seeps through, even in heavy downpours, keeping you dry and comfortable no matter what the conditions throw at you. The outer layer is built tough to withstand daily wear and tear, while still being flexible enough to allow easy movement during active work.

Inside, the jacket features a mesh lining that enhances breathability and comfort. This inner lining prevents that clammy feeling that often comes with heavy-duty rain gear, helping regulate body temperature during long shifts. The concealed hood adds another level of functionality — it can be easily tucked away when not needed, keeping your look neat while offering extra protection when the weather turns foul.

What truly sets this jacket apart is its smart and practical “6 in 1” convertible design. The DNC 3998 isn’t just a single garment — it’s a clever combination of the 3993 outer jacket and the 3994 reversible vest, giving you six different wearing options in one product. Thanks to the hidden zip access, the vest can be easily attached or detached from the jacket, allowing you to adapt to changing weather conditions or job requirements with ease. This versatility means you can wear it as a full waterproof jacket in the rain, as a lightweight vest on warmer days, or as a layered combination for cooler conditions — truly an all-seasons workwear essential.

The jacket features cross back generic reflective tape, strategically positioned to ensure high visibility from all angles. This design meets the strict requirements of AS/NZS 4602.1:2011 for day/night use, ensuring that workers remain clearly visible in low light or poor weather conditions. The cross back pattern isn’t just for safety — it’s also a recognised indicator on many job sites that identifies key personnel, making it functional and compliant.

Additionally, the two shoulder contrast panels, each less than 5cm wide, comply with Australian safety standards while adding a touch of modern style. These panels enhance visibility during the day and complement the hi vis fabric, available in Orange/Navy and Yellow/Navy colour combinations — two of the most trusted colourways in safety workwear.

Another thoughtful addition is the embroidery access, allowing easy branding or personalisation with company logos, names, or departments. This makes the jacket ideal for team uniforms, ensuring everyone looks professional and consistent while maintaining compliance with safety standards.

The DNC 3998 is available in a wide size range from XS to 6XL and 8XL, making it inclusive and suitable for workers of all builds. DNC has ensured that comfort, fit, and mobility are maintained across all sizes — a crucial factor for those who need reliable outerwear for long shifts or physically demanding tasks.

This jacket’s waterproof outer shell and versatile layering options make it particularly well-suited to Australia’s unpredictable climate. Whether it’s pouring rain on a Sydney construction site, windy conditions in Melbourne, or cool mornings in regional areas, the DNC 3998 delivers reliable protection without compromising comfort or function.

The “6 in 1” functionality ensures maximum value — it can serve as a rain jacket, hi vis vest, or insulated layer, reducing the need to buy multiple garments. Workers can easily switch between configurations as needed, saving time and ensuring they’re always dressed appropriately for safety and weather conditions.

From a maintenance perspective, the DNC 3998 is designed for convenience. The polyester/PVC fabric is easy to clean, resistant to stains, and built to handle the rough and tumble of daily industrial use. This makes it a practical investment for worksites that demand durability, visibility, and adaptability.

In essence, the DNC 3998 Hi Vis Cross Back 2 Tone Day/Night “6 in 1” Contrast Jacket is not just another work jacket — it’s an all-in-one protective system that adjusts to your needs. Whether you’re handling night shifts, early morning starts, or long outdoor jobs, it ensures you stay dry, visible, and comfortable throughout.
