Product Overview
The WX2 Eco Hi-Vis Holster Trouser Class 1 is a meticulously engineered garment designed for professionals who require a balance of safety, functionality, and environmental responsibility. As part of our eco-conscious range, these trousers integrate high-visibility protection with the practical storage solutions demanded by modern trades. The striking Orange and Black contrast ensures you remain conspicuous in low-light environments, while the addition of holster pockets provides immediate access to essential tools without the need for additional belts or pouches.
Key Features
- EN ISO 20471 Class 1 Certification: This ensures the garment meets essential safety standards for visibility, providing peace of mind for those working in hazardous or high-traffic areas.
- Integrated Holster Pockets: These pockets offer substantial storage for tools and fixings, allowing you to keep your hands free while keeping your equipment within reach.
- Sustainable Construction: Being part of the WX2 Eco range, these trousers are designed with modern manufacturing processes that consider environmental impact without compromising on garment strength.
- Contrast Colour Panels: The strategic use of black fabric in high-wear areas helps to hide dirt and grease, maintaining a cleaner, more professional appearance for longer between washes.
Design & Performance
These trousers are constructed from a substantial, hard-wearing fabric that provides the durability required for demanding work environments. The design prioritises freedom of movement, ensuring that bending, kneeling, and reaching are not hindered by the garment's structure. The fabric is a sturdy, medium-weight material that offers protection against the elements while remaining breathable enough for long shifts. The reinforced stitching at stress points ensures that the trousers withstand the rigours of daily site work, preventing premature wear and tear.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
At MyWorkwear, we understand that your clothing is an extension of your brand. These holster trousers are suitable for both print and embroidery, allowing you to add company logos or staff names with ease. Embroidery is particularly recommended for a superior, professional finish that stands up to repeated industrial laundering. Alternatively, print is an excellent choice for larger, bold designs that need to be seen from a distance. Our expert team in Telford, established in 1976, handles all customisation in-house to ensure the highest standards of quality control.
Use Cases
The Class 1 visibility rating makes these trousers ideal for logistics workers, warehouse staff, and tradespeople working in environments where visibility is required but the higher Class 2 or 3 ratings are not mandatory. They are particularly suited for electricians, plumbers, and carpenters who benefit from the holster pocket configuration to manage their small tools and fasteners efficiently on the job.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider whether you will be wearing these trousers over thermal base layers in colder months. A slightly more generous fit can aid airflow and movement when performing repetitive physical tasks. Ensure that the reflective tape is kept clean, as dirt and grime can significantly reduce the garment's high-visibility performance.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and high-visibility properties of these trousers, it is essential to follow correct laundering procedures. Regular cleaning is necessary to ensure the reflective elements remain effective at reflecting light back to the source.
Avoid the use of biological detergents or bleach, as these chemical agents can break down the fabric fibres and dull the fluorescent orange pigment. Over time, this can lead to a reduction in the garment's protective capabilities and overall lifespan.
We recommend air drying rather than using a tumble dryer. High heat from mechanical drying can damage the reflective tape, causing it to crack or peel, which compromises the Class 1 safety rating. Ironing should be done on a low setting and only if necessary, ensuring you do not iron directly over the reflective strips.
