Product Overview
The Hi-Vis Lightweight Contrast Class 1 Service Trousers are an essential piece of equipment for professionals requiring safety visibility without the burden of heavy fabric. Designed with a practical navy and orange contrast, these trousers provide a professional appearance while being fully certified for safety. The clever use of darker fabric in high-wear areas ensures the garment remains looking clean for longer periods on the job, which is particularly useful in demanding service environments.
Key Features
- Lightweight Kingsmill fabric provides exceptional comfort throughout the working day without compromising on the garment's strength.
- The contrast navy colourway is strategically placed to hide dirt and grease, extending the visual life and professional appearance of the trousers.
- Fully pre-shrunk material ensures that the fit remains consistent wash after wash, preventing any unwanted changes in size or comfort.
- Superior dye retention means the vibrant orange and deep navy colours stay sharp, maintaining your professional image even after extensive use.
- High-performance polycotton blend offers the breathability of cotton with the hard-wearing nature of polyester for long-term reliability.
Design & Performance
Constructed from Kingsmill Polycotton—a blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton—these service trousers are engineered for the modern workspace. The lightweight fabric allows for greater ease of movement, which is particularly beneficial during long shifts or in warmer environments. This material is specifically chosen for its high performance and comfort, providing a well-engineered balance between durability and wearable ease.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
Enhancing these trousers with your corporate branding is a straightforward process through MyWorkwear. For a professional appearance, we recommend embroidery for company logos and staff names, providing a durable and superior finish. Alternatively, print customisation is an excellent choice for larger, more bold designs that need to stand out clearly against the high-visibility fabric.
Our expert team has been handling garment customisation in-house at our Telford facility since 1976, ensuring that every stitch or print meets our exacting standards of quality and precision for your business.
Use Cases
These trousers are ideally suited for service personnel, logistics workers, and light construction teams who require Class 1 visibility. The lightweight nature makes them a sensible choice for indoor work or outdoor tasks during the spring and summer months where breathability is a priority.

Practical Advice

We suggest checking our size guide carefully to ensure the best fit, as a well-fitted trouser ensures both safety and comfort on site.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the performance and safety certification of these trousers requires adherence to specific care guidelines. A mild washing process at a maximum temperature of 40°C is recommended to remove dirt while protecting the integrity of the high-visibility elements and any custom branding.
Bleaching agents must be avoided as they will degrade the fabric fibres and damage the high-visibility properties essential for your safety. Similarly, these trousers should not be tumble dried; instead, drip line drying is the safest method to prevent shrinkage and maintain the garment's shape.
Avoiding the iron and dry cleaning is essential to prevent heat and chemical damage to the reflective elements and the polycotton blend. Please note that these trousers are rated for a maximum of 50 washes. Exceeding this limit may reduce the effectiveness of the high-visibility properties, and the garment should be replaced to ensure continued safety compliance.
