Product Overview
The DX4 Hi-Vis Overhead Hoodie is a highly technical and innovative garment designed for the professional who demands both safety and performance. Constructed from a double-sided bonded fleece, this hoodie provides significant thermal insulation while maintaining a contemporary, streamlined silhouette. It is engineered to withstand the rigours of a modern work environment, offering a sophisticated alternative to traditional high-visibility sweatshirts.
Key Features
- Fleece Bonded Fabric: The technical polyester fabric provides a substantial layer of warmth, making it ideal for maintaining core temperature in challenging conditions.
- HiVisTex Pro Segmented Tape: Unlike solid reflective strips, this segmented heat-applied tape allows for unrestricted movement and superior breathability, ensuring you remain comfortable throughout the day.
- Secure Storage Solutions: Featuring two zipped chest pockets and side entry pockets, this hoodie provides ample and secure space for essential tools and personal devices.
- Anti-Pill Finish: The high-quality fleece is treated to resist pilling, which prevents the fabric from bobbling and ensures your corporate image remains professional over time.
Design & Performance
This hoodie is crafted from a substantial, heavyweight polyester fleece that offers a robust feel and excellent durability. The double-sided bonding process creates a fabric that is both warm and structurally sound, resisting the typical wear and tear of manual labour. The design is finished in a striking orange and black contrast, which not only aids visibility but also masks dirt in high-contact areas, keeping the garment looking cleaner for longer.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The DX4 Hi-Vis Overhead Hoodie is perfectly suited for professional customisation. For a premium, long-lasting finish that reflects your company's standards, we recommend embroidery. This method is particularly effective for logos and staff names, providing a durable and high-quality appearance that lasts the lifetime of the garment.
For larger, high-impact branding, our precision printing services are an excellent choice, allowing for bold designs that remain visible even at a distance. Our expert in-house team in Telford, established in 1976, manages the entire process to ensure your branding is applied with technical precision.
Use Cases
This garment is an essential item for workers in the construction, engineering, and logistics sectors where high visibility is a mandatory safety requirement. Its modern fit and technical features also make it suitable for site managers and supervisors who require a professional appearance without sacrificing protection or comfort.

Practical Advice
The contemporary fit of the DX4 range is designed to be sleek and efficient. If you intend to wear multiple heavy layers beneath the hoodie, you may wish to consider your sizing carefully. The segmented tape provides excellent flexibility, meaning the garment will move with you even during strenuous physical activity.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-visibility performance and the integrity of the technical fleece, we recommend a mild wash process at a maximum temperature of 40°C. Washing at higher temperatures can damage the bonded fibres and the heat-applied reflective tape.
Do not use bleach, as this will permanently damage the fluorescent dyes and reduce the garment's safety effectiveness. For the same reason, this hoodie must not be tumble dried or ironed; excessive heat can cause the reflective segmented tape to peel or lose its luminosity. Line drying is the only recommended method to ensure the garment remains fit for purpose.
Please be aware that this garment is rated for a maximum of 25 washes. Beyond this point, the high-visibility properties may degrade below the required safety standards, and the garment should be replaced to ensure continued protection on site.
