Product Overview
The Regatta High Visibility Pro hi-vis executive vest (RG469) is a sophisticated alternative to the standard safety waistcoat, engineered for professionals who require a higher degree of functionality without compromising on safety. This garment is constructed from a lightweight knit fabric that ensures comfort throughout long shifts, making it an essential piece of equipment for those in supervisory or management roles on-site. Its design prioritises both visibility and utility, providing a structured look that remains professional in any environment.
Key Features
- A secure front zip closure provides a more reliable and professional fit than standard hook-and-loop fasteners, ensuring the vest remains closed and safe during active work.
- Multiple integrated pockets offer generous storage for essential items such as mobile phones, pens, and notebooks, keeping your tools organised and within reach.
- Dedicated radio loops are positioned for ease of use, allowing for the secure attachment of communication devices essential for team coordination.
- The built-in D-ring attachment provides a convenient and secure point for carrying ID badges, keys, or small tools, preventing them from being misplaced.
Design & Performance
The vest is manufactured from 100% polyester in a lightweight knit, designed to be worn comfortably over existing workwear without adding excessive bulk. The fabric is durable enough to withstand the rigours of daily use while maintaining the breathability needed for high-activity roles. Safety is at the core of its design; the vest is certified to EN ISO 20471:2013 A1:2016, with Class 1 or Class 2 ratings depending on the specific colourway. For those working in the rail industry, the orange colourway also conforms to RIS-3279/TOM, meeting the stringent visibility requirements for trackside environments.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Regatta Pro executive vest is an excellent canvas for customisation, allowing you to represent your business with a superior finish. Embroidery is highly recommended for company logos and individual names, providing a durable and professional appearance that withstands the demands of the workplace. If you require large-scale graphics or bold safety messaging on the back of the vest, our high-quality printing service offers exceptional clarity. All customisation is managed by our expert in-house team in Telford, leveraging nearly five decades of experience since our founding in 1976.
Use Cases
This executive vest is ideally suited for site managers, engineers, surveyors, and security personnel who require more storage and a more professional appearance than a standard vest provides. It is equally at home in logistics hubs, construction sites, or on rail infrastructure projects where high visibility is non-negotiable.

Practical Advice
The vest is available in a wide size range from Small to 3XL, designed to fit over standard work shirts or light fleeces. For those wearing more substantial outerwear, such as winter jackets, we suggest reviewing the chest measurements carefully to ensure a comfortable fit that allows for a full range of movement. The inclusion of a tear-out tag also makes it more comfortable for those with sensitive skin or those who prefer a cleaner internal finish.
Caring for your product
To preserve the life of the high-visibility fabric and the integrity of your custom branding, it is essential to follow the recommended care protocol. Proper maintenance ensures the reflective tapes continue to function correctly for your safety.
We recommend a cool wash for this garment. Excessive heat can damage the synthetic polyester fibres and may cause the reflective strips to lose their luminosity or peel away from the fabric over time.
Do not use bleach, as this will chemically degrade the high-visibility pigments and weaken the fabric. The vest should not be tumble dried, ironed, or dry cleaned. Exposure to the high temperatures found in drying and ironing processes can melt the material and permanently damage any printed or embroidered customisation.
