This hi-vis softshell vest is made for work where flame resistance, arc protection and visibility are needed together. The flame resistance is inherent to the fabric. The 3-layer softshell resists wind and water and stays breathable, so it adds warmth in chilly conditions.
Loops on both sides of the chest hold a gas detector, oxygen meter or microphone close at hand. An extended back keeps your lower back covered when you bend or reach. The metal-free build includes a robust hidden two-way plastic zip.
