Design & Performance
This vest is manufactured from 100% polyester knit fabric, chosen for its durability and lightweight properties. Unlike woven fabrics, the knit construction allows for a degree of flexibility and breathability, which is vital when worn over multiple layers of clothing. The design focuses on performance longevity; the fabric is resilient enough to withstand the daily rigours of site work while remaining easy to manage.
The inclusion of robust reflective tape across the shoulders and torso ensures that the wearer is visible from all angles. The supervisor-style cut offers a more structured appearance than basic vests, providing a more professional silhouette for management and supervisory staff.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This garment is perfectly suited for both print and embroidery, allowing you to align your team's safety wear with your corporate identity. Embroidery is the preferred choice for a professional and durable finish on logos and job titles, as the knit fabric provides a stable base for high-density stitching. For larger, more vibrant graphics or safety messaging across the back, our high-quality printing processes offer excellent clarity and visibility.
Our expert team in Telford, established in 1976, oversees the entire customisation process. We ensure that your branding is applied with precision, maintaining the integrity of the safety garment while delivering a superior finish that reflects the quality of your business.
Use Cases
The Regatta Pro Hi-Vis Supervisor Vest is an essential choice for site managers, safety officers, and supervisors across various sectors including construction, logistics, and civil engineering. The orange version is specifically required for those working in the UK rail industry. It is also highly effective for event marshals and warehouse leads who require a distinction from standard staff while maintaining high-visibility protection.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider what will be worn beneath the vest. This garment is designed with a generous fit to accommodate jackets or sweatshirts, but if it is primarily intended for summer use over a polo shirt, you may wish to consult our sizing guide to ensure a streamlined fit. The size range from Small to 3XL ensures that all members of your team are catered for professionally.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-visibility performance and the integrity of the reflective tapes, we recommend a cool wash. Excessive heat can degrade the fluorescent pigments and the adhesive used for the reflective elements, which may eventually reduce the garment's compliance with safety standards.
Do not use bleaching agents, as these will destroy the polyester fibres and significantly fade the safety colours. Similarly, the vest should not be tumble dried, ironed, or dry cleaned. The high temperatures and chemical solvents used in these processes can melt the synthetic fabric and damage the reflective strips, rendering the garment unsafe for use in professional environments.
