Hi Vis Vests

(37 products)

Hi vis vests are the go-to visibility garment for work across construction, warehousing, and roadside operations. They sit over any clothing and come off fast when moving between risk zones. The key decision? Class rating. Class 1 suits controlled environments like warehouses. Class 2 covers most building sites and logistics work. Class 3 needs full body coverage – a standard long sleeve hi vis vest or matching trousers to complete the ensemble.

Construction Types and Features

Zip up hi vis vests let you put them on without removing hard hats or tools. Pull-apart designs use Velcro or breakaway fasteways for emergency release if snagged. High visibility vests with pockets suit electricians and engineers carrying test gear and documentation. Waterproof options use coated fabrics for outdoor work, though ventilation suffers during physical tasks.

Mesh construction beats solid polyester for airflow in hot weather. Solid fabric lasts longer under repeated washing and resists snagging on rough edges. Both meet EN ISO 20471 requirements – it's durability versus comfort.

Fluorescent yellow performs best in daylight. Orange hi vis vests suit dusty environments where yellow blends into hazy backgrounds. Some industries specify orange for waste collection, rail maintenance, and emergency response. Reflective tape positioning matters: horizontal bands ensure 360-degree visibility, shoulder straps add vertical elements drivers recognise as human form. Cheap vests skimp on tape width to save costs. All options meet high visibility workwear standards.
