Product Overview
The Portwest Hi-Vis Classic Softshell (3L) is a substantial, heavyweight jacket designed for those who require both high-visibility protection and reliable weather resistance.

Key Features
- Three-Layer Construction: This advanced fabric technology provides a robust barrier against wind and light rain, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable throughout your shift.
- High-Visibility Performance: Available in fluorescent Orange and Yellow, this jacket ensures you remain conspicuous to colleagues and motorists, which is an essential safety requirement for many outdoor roles.
- Durable Polyester Blend: The high-quality material is designed to withstand the daily rigours of a busy site, providing long-lasting wear and excellent value for money.
- Functional Softshell Finish: The flexible nature of the softshell material allows for a full range of movement, which is particularly beneficial when performing physical tasks.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a substantial, heavyweight polyester blend, this softshell is far more than a standard outer layer. The '3L' designation refers to the three-layer bonded fabric, which works hard to balance insulation with breathability. It feels sturdy and dependable, providing a layer of protection that lighter garments simply cannot match.
The finish is clean and professional, making it suitable for site managers and tradespeople alike who need to transition between active work and client meetings. The high-visibility colours are deep and saturated, ensuring that the garment meets safety expectations while looking the part. It is a well-engineered piece of equipment that prioritises the wearer's safety without neglecting the practicalities of a long working day.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This item is available with both print and embroidery customisation. Our in-house team, based in Telford and established in 1976, handles all customisation to ensure a superior finish.
Embroidery is an excellent choice for company logos and individual names, delivering a textured, premium appearance that is highly durable. It stands up remarkably well to repeated washing without fading, maintaining a professional image for the life of the garment.
Alternatively, printing is better suited to large, bold designs or logos with a broader range of colours. It provides a sharp, vibrant finish that is particularly effective for high-impact branding on the back of the jacket.
Use Cases
This jacket is an ideal choice for site supervisors, construction workers, and logistics personnel who spend significant time outdoors. Its high-visibility properties make it a staple for roadside recovery teams or anyone working in proximity to moving vehicles. Because it offers a professional, tailored look, it is also highly recommended for project managers who need to maintain a presence on-site while looking authoritative.

Practical Advice
Given the substantial, heavyweight nature of this softshell, it serves as an excellent outer layer. For colder winter months, we recommend layering it over a thermal base or a fleece to maximise warmth. When selecting your size, consider what you intend to wear underneath to ensure a comfortable fit that doesn't restrict your movement.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-visibility performance and the technical integrity of the three-layer fabric, it is essential to follow the care instructions provided on the internal label. Proper maintenance ensures the garment continues to protect you and your branding remains clear.
Regular cleaning is recommended to remove dirt and grime that can dull the high-visibility pigments. Ensuring the jacket is kept clean will maintain its safety rating and keep your team looking professional for longer.
