Product Overview
The Portwest Hi-Vis Contrast Softshell (3L) is a robust and professional choice for those who require both visibility and comfort on the job. This substantial heavyweight jacket is designed to provide a reliable barrier against the elements while ensuring you remain clearly visible in high-traffic or low-light environments. Its three-layer construction offers a sturdy feel, making it far more than a standard lightweight layer.
Key Features
High-Visibility Yellow: The bright yellow fabric ensures you remain prominent on-site, which is a fundamental requirement for maintaining safety in hazardous working conditions.
Heavyweight Fabric: With a substantial build, this softshell provides a sense of security and protection that lightweight alternatives simply cannot match.
Durable Polyester Blend: The use of a polyester blend ensures the garment is resilient enough to withstand the daily rigours of manual work without losing its shape.
Unisex Fit: The versatile cut ensures a professional appearance and comfortable fit for all members of your team.
Design & Performance
Constructed with a 3-layer (3L) system, this softshell is engineered for durability and consistent performance. The heavyweight material provides a sturdy outer shell that feels substantial to the wearer, offering better protection during a long shift. Because it is crafted from a high-quality polyester blend, the fabric is resistant to the typical abrasions found in trade environments, ensuring your investment lasts longer.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This item is available with both print and embroidery customisation. Embroidery delivers a textured, premium appearance—ideal for company logos and staff names—and is particularly impressive as it stands up to repeated washing without fading. For those looking for a different finish, print is better suited to large, bold designs and offers a broader colour range to ensure your branding stands out. Our in-house team, established in 1976, handles all customisation in Telford, ensuring your garments are finished to our exacting professional standards.
Use Cases
This jacket is ideally suited for construction workers, site supervisors, and logistics personnel who need to be seen clearly. It is also an excellent choice for any business owner looking to provide their team with a uniform that combines safety with a smart, professional appearance.

Practical Advice
As this is a substantial, heavyweight softshell, it provides significant warmth on its own. If you are working in particularly harsh conditions, we suggest choosing a size that allows for a base layer underneath to ensure you remain comfortable without restricting your movement.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the integrity of your high-visibility gear is essential for your safety. We recommend following the manufacturer's care instructions closely to ensure the fabric's reflective properties and the high-visibility yellow pigment do not degrade over time.
Regular cleaning is important, as a build-up of dirt can reduce the effectiveness of the hi-vis finish. Avoiding harsh chemicals or bleach is vital, as these substances can damage the polyester fibres and cause your custom embroidery or print to lose its vibrancy, ultimately shortening the lifespan of your professional uniform.
