Product Overview
The Hi-Vis Contrast Winter Bib and Brace is an essential piece of equipment for those required to maintain visibility and warmth while working in demanding outdoor environments. This garment has been engineered to offer full protection for the lower body and chest against wet and cold conditions. The striking orange colour ensures you remain seen in low-light scenarios, while the contrast panels are strategically placed to mask dirt, keeping the garment looking cleaner for longer between washes.
Key Features
- 300D Oxford Weave Fabric: This heavy-duty material provides exceptional durability and resistance against tears and abrasions, making it ideal for the rigours of site work.
- Stain Resistant Finish: The fabric is treated to repel oil, water, and grime, ensuring the garment retains its professional appearance even in messy working conditions.
- Double PU Coating: This technical coating provides a robust waterproof barrier, keeping the wearer dry during heavy rain.
- Polyester Filling: The integrated thermal insulation traps heat effectively, providing much-needed warmth during the winter months without being overly bulky.
Design & Performance
Constructed from 100% Polyester 300D Oxford weave, this bib and brace is designed to withstand the daily stresses of manual labour. The fabric is substantial and sturdy, providing a reliable shield against the elements. Inside, a smooth polyester lining and insulation ensure that performance is not compromised by the cold. The double PU coating is not just about keeping water out; it contributes to the overall structural integrity of the garment, ensuring it remains a staple of your work wardrobe for multiple seasons.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
At MyWorkwear, we understand that your uniform is your brand. This bib and brace is suitable for both print and embroidery customisation. Our expert team in Telford, where we have been operating since 1976, can apply high-quality embroidery to the chest area for a sophisticated, professional finish that identifies your staff clearly. For larger, high-impact branding or safety messaging, our heat-applied printing techniques are perfectly suited to this polyester fabric, ensuring your logo remains sharp and visible.
Use Cases
This garment is specifically designed for professionals working in construction, road maintenance, and logistics during the winter months. It is particularly useful for those who need to remain dry while working in standing water or driving rain, and for anyone requiring the added safety of high-visibility clothing on a busy site.

Practical Advice
As this is a winter-specific garment with thermal filling, we recommend selecting your usual size for a comfortable fit over standard work trousers. If you intend to wear particularly thick thermal base layers, you may wish to consider the generous cut of the bib and brace to ensure full range of movement while bending or reaching.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-visibility properties and waterproof integrity of this garment, we recommend a domestic wash at a maximum of 40°C using a mild process. Washing at higher temperatures can damage the PU coating and reduce the effectiveness of the stain-resistant finish.
Do not use bleach on this garment, as it will strip the fluorescent dye and severely compromise the safety ratings of the high-visibility fabric. It is also important to note that this item should not be tumble dried; instead, it should be drip-line dried. High heat from a tumble dryer can melt the synthetic fibres and ruin the waterproof layers.
Ironing is strictly prohibited for this bib and brace, as the heat will damage the polyester shell and the double PU coating. Finally, to ensure the garment continues to meet safety standards, please observe the maximum limit of 50 washes, after which the reflective properties may begin to diminish.
