The reflective vests covered are Springyard Reflective Cross Belt from Brunngård Group, Nathan Streak yellow and Nathan Bandolier from Adapt-Comfort, and Dacross reflective vest from Briv.

Springyard's vest has been sold both online and in physical stores from November 2022 to June 2024, including in Apoteket's stores.

The reflective vests Nathan Streak yellow and Nathan Bandolier have been sold by Löplabbet between August 2018 and October 2024, both on the web and in physical stores.

The Dacross reflective vest in yellow, black, and pink has been sold since January 2023 by a range of retailers across the country, primarily various sports stores.

Those who have purchased any of the reflective vests are urged to immediately stop using it, return the product, and get their money refunded. The reason for the recall is that the reflective surface is too small and users are therefore not visible enough in traffic.
