Product Overview
The Hi-Vis Contrast Raincoat is a specialist garment designed for those who require comprehensive protection from the elements without compromising on visibility. Measuring 122cm in length, this coat offers significantly more coverage than standard work jackets, ensuring the wearer remains dry from the shoulders down to the lower leg. The two-tone Orange and Navy design serves a dual purpose: providing high visibility in low-light environments while utilizing darker contrast panels in areas most prone to dirt, helping to maintain a clean and professional appearance for longer periods.
Key Features
- Pack-away hood: Provides versatile protection that can be deployed instantly during sudden downpours or stowed neatly to prevent it from becoming a snag hazard when not in use.
- Large storage pockets: Offers ample space for essential equipment and personal items, ensuring they remain secure and protected from the rain.
- Vented back yoke and eyelets: Facilitates critical airflow to prevent the build-up of moisture inside the coat, ensuring the wearer stays comfortable during physical activity.
- 122cm extended length: Delivers superior coverage against driving rain and wind, providing protection that standard waist-length jackets cannot match.
Design & Performance
This raincoat is engineered from a lightweight fabric that provides a formidable barrier against foul weather conditions without adding unnecessary bulk or restricting movement. The inclusion of a vented back yoke is a deliberate design choice to manage the microclimate inside the garment; by allowing heat to escape through the eyelets and back vent, the coat avoids the 'sauna effect' often associated with waterproof outerwear. The contrast panels are strategically placed to mask the inevitable grime of a busy worksite, which helps preserve the fluorescent integrity of the orange fabric for safety compliance.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
At MyWorkwear, we understand that your clothing is a mobile representation of your business. This raincoat is suitable for both print and embroidery customisation. For a professional appearance, embroidery is an excellent choice for company logos or staff names, providing a durable and textured finish. Alternatively, for larger, high-impact branding that needs to be seen from a distance, our printing processes allow for bold designs that remain vibrant. Our expert in-house team in Telford, who have been perfecting their craft since 1976, manages the entire process to ensure your branding is applied with precision and care.
Use Cases
This garment is ideal for outdoor professionals working in transport, logistics, or site management where foul weather protection and high visibility are mandatory.

Practical Advice
As this is a lightweight raincoat, it is designed to be worn as an outer shell. To ensure comfort throughout the working day, we recommend layering this coat over a thermal fleece or a sweatshirt during colder months. When selecting your size, please account for the clothing you intend to wear underneath to ensure a comfortable fit that does not restrict your range of motion.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the performance of your raincoat is essential for ensuring it continues to provide protection and remains safety-compliant. Keeping the garment clean is the most effective way to ensure the reflective tapes and fluorescent orange fabric remain visible to others on site.
We recommend avoiding the use of biological detergents or fabric softeners, as these can gradually degrade the waterproof coating and interfere with the technical properties of the fabric. Always ensure the garment is fully dry before folding or storing it; storing a damp raincoat can lead to the development of mildew, which can damage the fabric and cause unpleasant odours.
