Roots FR/AS Fleece RO14690

Flame Retardant Roots FR/AS Fleece Jacket

The Roots FR/AS fleece jacket combines protection with versatility, making it an excellent choice for professionals working in demanding environments. This multinorm fleece jacket is engineered as a standalone piece that delivers full flame retardant protection, yet it's also designed to layer seamlessly into compatible Roots work coats (models RO1517 and RO13340) as a removable winter lining. The inherently flame retardant material resists ignition and minimises the spread of flame, whilst the integrated reflective striping enhances visibility on site. A central zip fastening allows for easy adjustment, and two zipped hand pockets provide practical storage for essentials. The antistatic properties protect against electrical hazards, making this fleece jacket suitable for varied industrial settings where multiple safety considerations apply.

Key Features

• Worn independently or zipped into compatible Roots work jackets
• Reflective striping for enhanced on-site visibility
• Central zip with two zipped hand pockets
• Inherently flame retardant material meets strict safety standards
• Antistatic properties for electrical hazard protection

Recommendations from our Unishore Expert

This fleece jacket strikes the right balance between standalone capability and layering flexibility. The material composition provides thermal comfort whilst maintaining its protective properties, so you're covered whether temperatures drop or you're moving between different work zones. The reflective bands are particularly valuable during early starts or late finishes when visibility matters. Because the fleece zips into select Roots work jackets, you can build a system that adapts to your site conditions without unnecessary bulk. The hand pockets with zip closures keep your hands warm and your essentials secure, which makes a real difference during long shifts. If you're regularly exposed to flame and electrical risks, this jacket represents a sensible investment in reliable protection.
