Children received reflective walking hoses

Children from the kindergartens and nurseries from Piła received an extremely valuable gift. It is about walking hoses made by reflective material, thanks to which they will be better visible on the roads.

 

The hoses are made of a waterproof fabric, filled with light foam. There are fixed handles on the hoses to help children settle in pairs. The snake helps to maintain safety and discipline during walks with a group of children. It can also be used for movement games, exercising balance. Its great asset is also the reflective products, thanks to which the walking group of children is perfectly visible, especially in the autumn and winter – said Bennie, WORD director, while handing gifts to kindergartners.

Piła’s President Piotr Głowski attended the meeting organized at the headquarters of WORD at Lotnicza, representatives of the kindergartens and nursery, who received presents. Hoses have been purchased from funds intended to improve road safety.

A reflective gift for an athlete

Most of us already have at least selected gifts, but if you still have shopping in front of you, we present a list of gifts ideal for the athlete. Today we will look at reflections because they are inexpensive, their choice is very rich, and they are useful. Here is why the reflective products are perfect for a gift.

 

Reflective gadgets can save a runner’s life!

Poles are becoming more and more active. Negative temperatures, darkness, even rain cannot draw thousands of compatriots away from their daily training. Movement before work or after returning home is the best way to rest and take a distance are professional matters. Who moves, gains strength, good figure, and well-being. Unfortunately, it is still too rare when thinking about your own safety to make a dispute. Although active people have already learned how to choose the right clothing and shoes for maximum comfort and protection against injuries, but the need to ensure proper visibility after dark is still neglected.

 

Cyclists and runners often move in city traffic. Dark tracksuit and adverse weather conditions make them almost invisible to drivers after dark. Even at low speed, the braking distance is long enough to prevent the driver from making any maneuver that avoids the accident. The use of a reflector improves visibility from 30-40 m to even 150 m. Thanks to this, the driver has time to slow down or pass a pedestrian or a cyclist. – says Anita Nicias from the online store with reflexive accessories for active people.

 

Reflections and legal regulations

Not everyone knows that wearing reflective vest after dark is mandatory outside built-up areas, and for their lack, the police can impose a mandate up to PLN 500. However, it is not a vision of punishment, and care for safety should prompt athletes or their friends (or loved ones) to buy a wristband. Christmas is a traditional period when we look for gifts. By buying reflectors or LED accessories, you can be sure that it will be a hit gift that will please the recipient and will definitely be used.

 

There is a whole group of universal reflectors available on the market for people practicing sports such as: self-tightening straps, reflective braces, warning vests, reflective T-shirts, reflective caps. For runners, cyclists and Nordic walking enthusiasts, you can choose dedicated reflective gadgets that take into account the needs of each of these groups of athletes.

 

Reflectors for runners

The basic reflective equipment for the runner can be a reflective t-shirt with fluorescent stripes, luminous shoelaces, and LED overlays for shoes. Such a set can be supplemented with a reflective tube, which is very popular due to its multiple uses. You can make a balaclava, shawl, tie on the wrist, and use it as a hair band or a headband. Runners also need a flexible reflective band and a sachet for keys or a telephone. Fashionably, safely and practically – high quality reflective products will be useful for every active person.

 

Reflectors for cyclists

Cyclists can successfully use reflective gadgets for runners. However, they should also focus on equipping with the reflections of the bicycle. – The basic thing is a flag. In addition to her, it is worth thinking about the led pad mounted on silicone hooks. It is a great product. It is visible even from 400 m and can be hung on a frame, basket, or wheel. For cyclists there are also balls and sticks for spokes and various LED bicycle lamps.

 

Reflective Gadgets for those who practice Nordic walking

This group of sports people must have good visible clothing in the first place. For them are designed different reflective T-shirts, soft-shell jackets and various useful finer gadgets. A good gift can be, for example: a reflective cover for a mobile phone, a set of reflective clips on the leg or multicolored bands. Reflectors are essential for athletes, but they are useful to us all. Children will be happy with a pendant or a reflective key ring. Such inexpensive and aesthetically made little things are worth adding Santa to the gift bag.

 

With Uele Maurer safely across the street

Together with Federal President Uele Maurer, the TCS distributed the first of 50,000 Play-mob figures reflective products from the film “Halt vow’s ballet” at the Geneva Motor Show. The figure was developed jointly, the TCS and Jung von Matt.

 

Now it has been included in the official Play-mob range under product number 6096. In addition to the small males, which can be purchased exclusively in the branches of the TCS sections, more than 20 life-size figures were also produced for exhibition purposes. In addition, all 80,000 first-graders in Switzerland will be presented with a Play-mob student safety vest at the beginning of the school year. Uele Maurer has already drawn on one of the printed reflective vests at the automobile salon.

Lightweight reflective jacket with artificial heat insulation

What to choose heat insulation? Or better will be the model of the panels on the sides or full reflective jacket for cooler conditions? Rather soft outer material and only waterproof or waterproof and stronger? Rather slightly or somewhat more solid? Questions when choosing a mountain of clothing is as always a lot – throw some light on a light jacket with artificial heat insulation.

 

In reality the mountain and the vast majority of outdoor light jacket – whether down or with artificial heat insulation – have their place in your backpack (or at least in the trunk) throughout the year. In the summer we use them most evenings in the camps, field tents and bivouacs while climbing, as well as in the morning, when we provide comfortable waiting for the coming of the sun.

 

Spring and autumn is a time of increased use of these reflective products; period of hot weather during the day significantly shortened, and mornings and evenings are beginning to offer frosts or, at best, a solid cold.

 

Winter jackets come into play heavier caliber; to make yourself a morning coffee, most often we reach for something “Armored,” just as soon as the sun disappears somewhere far to the west. Otherwise the case is during the day; when we are devoted to the activity in the ski race and climbing, and for that – although there is frost – we have a typical day “Lamp” and hard “Trolling” begin to feel uncomfortable.

The solution can only be one thing: light jackets by reflective fabric. They replaced the largely classic “Polar” and are now used throughout the year, offering skiers, climbers and tourist’s better performance in relation to its weight and more attractive, more modern look.
