Product Overview
Maintaining high visibility in sweltering conditions often presents a conflict between safety requirements and personal comfort. The Madrid Hi-Vis Half Mesh Executive Vest is an engineered solution designed specifically for those working under the sun or in high-heat environments. By incorporating a revolutionary mesh upper section, this garment facilitates maximum airflow where it is needed most, ensuring you stay cool without compromising on your professional appearance or site safety standards.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
Despite its mesh upper, this vest provides an excellent canvas for your corporate branding on the solid fabric panels. Our Telford-based team, who have been perfecting garment customisation since 1976, can apply your logo with precision. For a more formal finish, embroidery is recommended for names and primary brand logos. If you require larger, more striking graphics on the solid fabric sections, our high-quality print process ensures your message is seen as clearly as the vest itself.
Key Features
- Integrated mesh top panel allows for superior breathability, preventing heat build-up during intense physical activity.
- 100% Polyester Warp Knit shell offers a durable and snag-resistant finish that stands up to the rigours of the workplace.
- The executive-style cut provides a more structured and professional silhouette compared to standard high-visibility waistcoats.
- Vibrant orange colour ensures you remain highly visible to colleagues and vehicle operators in various lighting conditions.
Design & Performance
The construction of this vest focuses on thermal regulation. The lightweight fabric is split between a solid warp knit lower and a highly ventilated mesh upper. This design is not merely for aesthetics; it actively encourages heat to escape from the upper torso, which is critical for comfort during long shifts. The choice of polyester ensures that the vest remains lightweight and does not absorb moisture, keeping the garment feeling fresh and comfortable even when the temperature rises.
Use Cases
This vest is essential equipment for a wide range of professionals. It is particularly well-suited for construction workers, tree surgeons, and electricians who work outdoors. It is also an excellent choice for mechanics, plumbers, and security personnel who require high visibility combined with the cooling properties of a mesh garment in demanding environments.

Practical Advice
As an executive vest, this garment is designed to be worn over light clothing like t-shirts or polo shirts. If you intend to wear it over a heavier sweatshirt during transitional weather, you may wish to consider a larger size to ensure a comfortable fit and full range of movement.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-visibility properties and structural integrity of your vest, we recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 40°C using a mild process. Excessive heat during the washing cycle can damage the reflective materials and degrade the technical polyester fibres.
Under no circumstances should bleach be used, as this will destroy the fluorescent dyes and significantly reduce the garment's visibility. Similarly, do not dry clean this item, as the chemicals involved are too harsh for the fabric and its safety components.
To ensure the garment retains its shape and the reflective tape remains intact, do not tumble dry. Instead, line dry the vest. Ironing should also be avoided, as direct heat can melt the synthetic fibres and damage any applied branding. Please note that the garment's effectiveness is rated for a maximum of 50 washes; beyond this, the visibility performance may begin to diminish.
