Product Overview
The Warrior Hi-Vis Sweatshirt is a foundational piece of safety equipment designed for professionals who require high visibility without compromising on comfort. Engineered to be a reliable mid-layer or outer garment, this sweatshirt combines a practical design with the necessary certifications for high-risk environments.
Key Features
- Certified Safety: This garment conforms to EN ISO 20471: 2013 + A1: 2016 Class 3, providing the highest level of visibility for hazardous work conditions.
- Railway Compliant: The orange variant meets the RIS-3279-TOM standard, making it essential for workers on or near the UK rail network.
- Optimised Reflective Layout: Two reflective bands around the body and sleeves, complemented by bands over each shoulder, ensure you are visible from all angles.
- Unrestricted Movement: The drop shoulder style provides a more relaxed fit across the upper body, allowing for a natural range of motion during physical tasks.
- Heat Retention: Elasticated cuffs and a matching hem ensure a secure fit that helps keep out cold draughts while maintaining the garment's shape.
Design & Performance
Constructed from 100% polyester, this sweatshirt is designed to withstand the daily demands of a busy worksite. The fabric is a standard weight, providing a comfortable balance of warmth and breathability that is suitable for year-round use. Polyester is a preferred material for high-visibility garments because of its excellent colour fastness, ensuring the fluorescent hue remains vibrant even after multiple washes.
The crew neck and drop shoulder design contribute to a professional appearance that doesn't feel restrictive. The reflective tape is securely applied to withstand movement, ensuring the safety features remain intact throughout the lifespan of the garment.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This sweatshirt is an ideal choice for customisation. For a professional appearance that lasts, embroidery is a superior option. Our Telford-based team can apply your company logo or staff names with precision, creating a textured finish that maintains its integrity in industrial settings.
If you require larger, more bold designs for site identification, our printing services offer a smooth and vibrant finish. Since 1976, MyWorkwear has been perfecting these techniques in-house, ensuring that your branding is applied with the expertise your business deserves.
Use Cases
Due to its Class 3 rating, this sweatshirt is suitable for high-speed roadworks, construction sites, and any environment where visibility is the primary safety concern. The orange version is specifically tailored for the rail industry. It is also a practical choice for warehouse staff, delivery drivers, and security personnel who need to remain seen in low-light conditions.

Practical Advice
This standard-weight sweatshirt is highly versatile for layering. In colder conditions, it fits comfortably under a waterproof hi-vis jacket without adding excessive bulk. For the best fit, we recommend selecting your usual size, though the drop shoulder design does provide a slightly more generous feel around the chest.
Caring for your product
To ensure this garment continues to meet safety standards, it is vital to keep the reflective bands clean. Accumulated dirt can significantly reduce the reflective performance, compromising your safety on site.
We recommend a standard wash to keep the fabric in optimal condition. Avoid using biological detergents or bleach, as these can break down the fluorescent dyes and damage the reflective tape. Air drying is the best method to preserve the elasticity of the cuffs and hem, ensuring the garment retains its professional fit over time.
