Frequently asked questions
Is this vest suitable for roadside or highway work?
Is this vest suitable for roadside or highway work?
This is an EN ISO 20471 Class 1 vest, the lowest of the three hi-vis classes, so it suits general site and yard visibility work rather than high-speed road or motorway work, where Class 2 or Class 3 is normally required.
Can I fit an ID card in this vest?
Can I fit an ID card in this vest?
Yes. There's a dual ID holder on the chest that takes a card in either portrait or landscape orientation, so it works for most standard site or contractor passes.
Is the whole vest mesh?
Is the whole vest mesh?
No - the upper torso is mesh for breathability, and the lower body is solid fabric. It's a half mesh design, not full mesh throughout.
How does the vest fasten?
How does the vest fasten?
A hook and loop front closure, so it goes on and off quickly over other workwear.
What sizes are available?
What sizes are available?
S/M, L/XL, XX/3X and 4X/5X, in Orange or Yellow, unisex fit - the same size range is available in both colours.
Is it waterproof or warm enough for winter?
Is it waterproof or warm enough for winter?
No - it's a lightweight mesh vest with no waterproof or thermal rating, designed for warm-weather visibility rather than wet or cold conditions.
Can I get this vest printed with a logo?
Can I get this vest printed with a logo?
Logo printing is available on this vest; embroidery is not offered on this style.
