Product Overview
The PW3 Hi-Vis Executive Vest is a refined alternative to the standard high-visibility waistcoat, specifically engineered for professionals who require a combination of visibility, functionality, and a professional silhouette. As part of the premium PW3 range, this garment integrates technical performance with the practical storage needs of an executive role. It is an ideal solution for those who find a full jacket too cumbersome in warmer conditions but still require the utility of multiple pockets and secure ID storage.
Key Features
- HiVisTex Pro Segmented Reflective Tape: This heat-applied tape provides excellent visibility while its segmented design allows for superior garment flexibility and breathability compared to solid tapes.
- Multiple Functional Pockets: Designed to bridge the gap between a vest and a jacket, these pockets offer ample space for essential tools, mobile devices, and stationery.
- Detachable ID Pocket: This clear pocket allows for the secure display of security passes or site identification and can be removed when not required for a cleaner appearance.
- Two-Tone Design: The Orange and Black colourway offers a modern, professional aesthetic while ensuring the wearer remains compliant with safety visibility requirements.
Design & Performance
The vest is constructed from a 100% Polyester Warp Knit fabric. This choice of material is deliberate; the warp knit provides a stable, durable structure that resists snagging while remaining a lightweight fabric for all-day comfort. The inclusion of HiVisTex Pro segmented tape is a critical design choice, as it ensures the garment remains flexible, moving with the wearer rather than resisting movement like traditional reflective materials.
The executive fit is tailored to provide a professional appearance on-site, ensuring that management and technical staff are easily identifiable. The fabric's breathability makes it particularly effective for high-activity roles or for use in environments where temperature regulation is a priority.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The PW3 Executive Vest is an excellent canvas for company branding. For a sophisticated and durable finish, we recommend embroidery for chest-placed logos or staff names. This provides a tactile, professional look that stands up well to the rigours of daily work.
For larger branding requirements, such as company logos on the back of the vest, heat-transfer printing is highly effective. Our in-house customisation team, based in Telford and established in 1976, utilises precision techniques to ensure your branding is applied correctly to the polyester substrate, maintaining the garment's professional integrity. Whether you choose print or embroidery, our expertise ensures your team maintains a consistent and professional appearance.
Use Cases
This garment is designed for professionals across several sectors, including construction site management, electrical engineering, and plumbing. It is also an excellent choice for security personnel and mechanics who require high visibility combined with the convenience of accessible pockets for tools and communication equipment.

Practical Advice
This vest is designed with an executive fit, intended to be worn over standard work shirts or lightweight sweatshirts. If you anticipate wearing this vest over a bulky winter jacket, we recommend selecting one size larger than your usual measurement to ensure comfort and ease of movement.
Caring for your product
To preserve the technical properties of the HiVisTex Pro tape and the vibrant orange pigment, we recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 40°C using a very mild process. Exceeding this temperature or using aggressive wash cycles can degrade the reflective elements and shorten the lifespan of the garment.
Do not use bleach, as it will cause permanent discolouration to the high-visibility fabric and weaken the polyester fibres. This garment is not suitable for tumble drying; it should be drip line dried to ensure it retains its shape and reflective efficiency.
Ironing is not permitted, as the heat can melt the polyester knit and destroy the heat-applied reflective tape. Additionally, the garment should not be dry cleaned. Please note that this product is rated for a maximum of 50 washes, after which the visibility performance may no longer meet the original safety standards.
