Product Overview
The ES1 Essential Hi-Vis Mesh Executive Vest is a well-engineered garment designed for professionals who require high visibility without the discomfort of heat retention. By utilising advanced MeshAir technology, this vest ensures consistent airflow, keeping the wearer cool during physically demanding tasks or in warmer working environments.
Going beyond the functionality of a standard waistcoat, this executive vest includes a variety of practical features such as a secure zipped front and multiple storage options. It is a professional solution for those who need to maintain safety standards while managing the logistical requirements of their role.
Key Features
- MeshAir Technology: The open-mesh construction provides excellent ventilation, allowing body heat to escape and fresh air to circulate, which is essential for comfort in high-temperature settings.
- Functional Pocket Array: Equipped with multiple pockets, this vest allows for the organised storage of tools and equipment, ensuring essential items are always within reach.
- Dedicated ID Holder: A clear, integrated pouch facilitates the easy display of identification or access cards, maintaining security protocols without hassle.
- Radio Loop: A reinforced loop is included to provide a secure attachment point for communication devices, allowing for hands-free operation on-site.
- Zipped Front Closure: The use of a robust zip rather than standard fasteners ensures a secure fit and contributes to a more structured, professional appearance.
Design & Performance
This vest is manufactured from 100% Polyester Mesh, a fabric chosen for its durability and its ability to facilitate airflow. Despite being a lightweight fabric, it is engineered to withstand the daily rigours of industrial environments while remaining fully compliant with EN ISO 20471 safety standards.
The MeshAir fabric is designed to maintain its high-visibility orange pigment through repeated wear, ensuring that the safety of the user is never compromised. The executive design provides a more tailored fit than basic vests, making it suitable for management and supervisors who need to remain visible while representing their company.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, please keep in mind that this vest is often worn over other layers of workwear. Because the mesh fabric is designed for ventilation rather than warmth, it is best used as an outer layer during the summer months or in indoor environments where airflow is restricted.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the integrity of high-visibility garments is vital for continued safety. Proper care ensures that the MeshAir fabric and the reflective elements continue to meet safety standards throughout the life of the garment.
We recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 40°C using a mild process. Washing at higher temperatures can damage the polyester mesh and degrade the reflective tape, which would reduce your visibility on-site. Do not use bleach, as this will destroy the high-visibility orange pigment.
This garment should be line dried only. Do not tumble dry, as the heat can cause the mesh to shrink or lose its shape. Similarly, do not iron or dry clean the vest. Please be aware that this garment has a maximum service life of 25 washes; after this point, the reflective properties may no longer meet the EN ISO 20471 standard, and the vest should be replaced.
