Working in high risk environments makes hi visibility clothing a legal requirement. If you’re looking for a lightweight option or something to throw over your clothes in all season, our women’s hi vis vests are perfect.
Made with fluorescent materials and reflective strips, our women’s hi-vis vests keep you visible helping reduce accidents and improve workplace safety.
We have women’s hi vis vest, that are available in a range of styles including zip-up, velcro and pocket and colours to suit the demands of every work place. Explore our collection of hi-vis vests to find the perfect fit for your work environment.
Women’s Hi Vis Vest with Pockets
If you find yourself constantly looking for personal items, documents or tool, then a hi vis vest with pockets is a great way to keep all your items close to hand. Our women’s hi vis vests with pockets are great for warehouse staff, security personnel, and roadside workers. Pocketed hi-vis vests give an extra layer of practicality on top of safety, making your work day that little bit easier.
Women’s Zip-Up Hi Vis Vests
As convenient as hook and loop tape is, it’s not a particularly secure fastening. We stock zip-up hi-vis vests as well, to give a more secure and reliable fit when needed, particularly jobs revolving round machinery where a loose hi-vis vest could cause accidents. We recommend the Blackrock Hi-Vis Waistcoat, it features a front zip closure that is easy to open, but much more secure.
The Health And Safety Executive (HSE) states that a number of workplaces are legally required to enforce the wearing of hi-vis clothing. Many of our vests comply with EN ISO 20471 standards so they’ll meet these demands, keeping you visible (and keeping you safe!) in high risk environments and low-light conditions.
Our hi-vis vests are also a lightweight choice, making them ideal for hot days when bulkier hi-vis trousers or hi-vis jackets are too much. In particular the Alexandra Unisex Hi-Vis Vest offers certified high visibility safety while also being lightweight and breathable to keep it a completely comfortable option.
A hi-vis vest with pockets is ideal for women who need easy access to tools and personal items. The Blackrock Premium Hi-Vis Waistcoat you get three pockets - two large cargo pockets plus one smaller phone pocket on the breast. Space to store all the items you need, with hook and loop fastenings to keep the pockets closed and your items in place.
The main benefit of a zip-up hi-vis vest is that it fastens more securely. Whereas hook-and-loop fastenings can easily get tugged open, and the fastening will weaken over time, with a zip your vest will stay closed anytime you zip it up. If you need to wear a hi-vis vest for long periods or while particularly active, a zip up vest is a smart choice. But if you need one you can remove quickly, then a hook-and-loop fastening vest will be more suitable.
A hi-vis safety vest should comply with EN ISO 20471 standards for visibility and durability. Vests that meet these standards will be brightly coloured with plenty of reflective tape on their surface to keep you visible even in low light conditions. Our high-quality vests are also made of breathable fabric to keep you comfortable, with reinforced stitching to give them a long lifespan even under the stress of daily wear and regular washing.
Construction workers need a hi-vis vest for construction that offers durability and comfort, as well as complying with safety regulations. A reinforced, breathable vest with reflective tape is ideal. A lot of the vests in our range meet these needs, though the premium construction and fabric of Leo Workwear Lynton Unisex Hi-Vis Vest means it will withstand the heavy demands of construction work for longer.
