Product Overview
The B303 Hi-Vis Sweatshirt is a masterclass in transitional workwear, designed to fill the gap when a t-shirt is insufficient but a full jacket is cumbersome. Engineered for comfort and compliance, this sweatshirt provides a professional appearance while ensuring you remain visible in challenging environments. The orange variant specifically meets the stringent RIS-3279-TOM rail specification, making it a staple for high-stakes infrastructure projects.
Key Features
- Rail Specification Compliance: Meeting RIS-3279-TOM standards ensures this garment is suitable for use in the UK rail industry, providing the necessary visibility for safety on the trackside.
- Generous Fit: The roomy cut allows for unrestricted movement and easy layering over base garments without sacrificing comfort.
- Soft-Touch Interior: The fabric is designed to be gentle against the skin, reducing irritation during long shifts.
- Durable Fabric Blend: A poly-cotton composition offers the best of both worlds, providing the breathability of cotton with the hard-wearing resilience of polyester.
Design & Performance
This sweatshirt is constructed from a substantial medium-weight fabric that provides warmth without excessive bulk. The 65% polyester and 35% cotton blend is specifically chosen for its ability to withstand the rigours of daily wear while maintaining its shape and colour. The high-visibility orange is pigmented to stay vibrant, ensuring the garment continues to meet safety requirements over time. The soft-touch finish on the fabric ensures that despite its rugged performance, it remains comfortable for all-day wear.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
At MyWorkwear, we understand that your uniform is a reflection of your brand. The B303 is an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery. Embroidery is particularly effective for company logos and individual names, providing a textured, long-lasting, and highly professional appearance. For larger, bold branding that needs to stand out from a distance, our high-quality printing process is the ideal choice. All customisation is managed by our expert in-house team in Telford, drawing on decades of experience since our founding in 1976.
Use Cases
Given its compliance with RIS-3279-TOM, this sweatshirt is essential for rail workers, but its utility extends far beyond the tracks. It is perfectly suited for warehouse staff, site managers, and delivery drivers who require high visibility and a layer of warmth during early morning or late evening shifts. Its professional cut makes it equally appropriate for customer-facing roles in technical or industrial sectors.

Practical Advice
This sweatshirt features a roomy fit; if you prefer a more tailored appearance or are between sizes, you may wish to consider the smaller option. It serves as an excellent mid-layer; pair it with a moisture-wicking base layer for optimal thermal regulation on site.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-visibility properties and the integrity of your custom branding, we recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 40°C. Exceeding this temperature can damage the reflective elements and the structural fibres of the garment.
Bleaching must be avoided at all costs, as it will strip the high-visibility pigment and weaken the fabric. Similarly, do not tumble dry this sweatshirt; instead, line dry it to prevent shrinkage and preserve the lifespan of the printed or embroidered logos.
Ironing is not recommended, as high heat can melt the synthetic fibres and damage reflective tape. Please note that this garment is certified for a maximum of 50 washes, after which the visibility standards may no longer be guaranteed, so it is wise to monitor the condition of the garment regularly.
