Product Overview
The ES1 Essential Hi-Vis Sweatshirt (ES303) is an indispensable garment for professionals who require high visibility without the bulk of a heavy jacket. Designed for those transitional periods when a T-shirt is insufficient but a coat is too cumbersome, this sweatshirt provides a reliable balance of warmth and breathability. Its vibrant orange colour ensures you remain conspicuous on-site, while the generous cut allows for unrestricted movement during physical tasks.
Key Features
- High-Visibility Orange: Engineered to ensure maximum visibility in low-light or busy work environments, assisting with site safety compliance.
- Polyester and Cotton Blend: Combines the hard-wearing durability of polyester with the natural comfort and breathability of cotton.
- Roomy Fit: Designed with a spacious silhouette to allow for easy layering and a full range of motion.
- Soft-Touch Fabric: The interior and exterior are finished to be gentle against the skin, reducing irritation during long shifts.
Design & Performance
The ES303 is constructed from a sturdy 65% polyester and 35% cotton fabric. This specific composition is chosen for its performance in industrial settings; the polyester provides the necessary tensile strength to withstand daily wear and tear, while the cotton ensures the garment remains comfortable and manages moisture effectively. As a medium-to-heavyweight sweatshirt, it offers enough substance to provide thermal insulation without becoming overly heavy when damp.
The garment's structure is reinforced to maintain its shape after repeated wear, ensuring it remains a professional part of your uniform for the duration of its lifespan. The fabric is specifically chosen for its ability to hold its colour, which is vital for maintaining the safety standards associated with high-visibility clothing.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The ES1 Essential Hi-Vis Sweatshirt serves as an excellent canvas for corporate branding. For a sophisticated and traditional finish, we recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team uses high-quality threads to ensure your company logo or staff names are rendered with precision and durability, making it ideal for a permanent professional look.
If your requirements include large, bold graphics or promotional messaging, print customisation is an effective alternative. This method allows for high-impact designs that remain clear and visible. Since 1976, MyWorkwear has managed all customisation in-house, ensuring that every garment meets our exacting standards before it reaches your door.
Use Cases
This sweatshirt is a versatile choice for various sectors, including construction, logistics, and roadside maintenance. It is particularly well-suited for warehouse staff who frequently move between indoor and outdoor environments, as well as site managers who require a professional yet functional upper layer.

Practical Advice
Given the roomy fit of the ES303, it is perfectly suited for wearing over a base-layer T-shirt or polo shirt. If you prefer a more tailored appearance, you may wish to consider this when selecting your size, though the extra space is generally appreciated for the improved airflow and mobility it provides during active work.
Caring for your product
To maintain the integrity of the fabric and the effectiveness of the high-visibility properties, it is important to follow the recommended care routine. We recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 40°C. Exceeding this temperature can damage the synthetic fibres and cause the reflective elements to degrade prematurely.
Do not use bleach on this garment, as harsh chemicals will strip the high-visibility dye and weaken the structural integrity of the polyester-cotton blend. The sweatshirt should be line dried only; tumble drying may cause shrinkage and can affect the adhesive used for reflective taping or printed logos.
This garment should not be ironed. High heat from an iron can melt the polyester components and permanently damage the safety features. Additionally, dry cleaning should be avoided to prevent chemical damage. Please note that this garment is rated for a maximum of 50 washes to ensure it continues to meet safety visibility standards throughout its service life.
