Product Overview
The Yoko Hi-vis jogging trousers represent a significant evolution in functional workwear, successfully bridging the gap between professional safety compliance and the unrestricted comfort of leisurewear. Designed for those who require high visibility without the restrictive nature of traditional heavy-duty trousers, these medium-weight joggers are crafted from a soft-feel polyester jersey. The fabric features a water-repellent finish and anti-pill properties, ensuring the garment maintains its professional appearance even after repeated use in demanding environments.
Whether you are working on a rail project or navigating a busy warehouse, these trousers provide a tailored edge that looks appropriate both during and after your shift. The inclusion of multiple secure pockets and retro-reflective tapes ensures that practicality and safety are never compromised for the sake of comfort.
Key Features
- Safety Certified: The Hi-Vis Yellow and Orange variations conform to EN ISO 20471 Class 1, while the Orange specifically meets RIS-3279-TOM standards for the railway industry, ensuring you remain compliant on-site.
- High Visibility Enhancement: Featuring two 5cm wide retro-reflective tape bands positioned higher up the mid-thigh for maximum light return and visibility in low-light conditions.
- Functional Storage: Equipped with cargo pockets with hook and loop flaps on both legs, two zipped hip pockets, and a rear patch pocket, providing secure space for tools and personal items.
- Exceptional Comfort: The fully elasticated waist with a robust drawcord and elasticated ankles ensure a secure fit that allows for maximum movement without restriction.
- Weather Resistance: The single jersey knitted fabric is treated with a water-repellent coating to help keep you dry during light showers.
Design & Performance
Constructed from 100% polyester, these jogging trousers are engineered for durability and ease of movement. The medium-weight fabric provides enough substance to feel protective while remaining breathable enough for active tasks. The anti-pill finish is particularly beneficial for professionals, as it prevents the surface bobbling that often affects standard jersey fabrics, keeping your uniform looking sharp for longer.
The performance of these trousers is centred around the 'soft-feel' jersey, which reduces skin irritation during long shifts. The strategic placement of the reflective bands on the thighs rather than the shins allows for better flexibility at the knee, a thoughtful design choice for workers who spend a lot of time kneeling or climbing.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
At MyWorkwear, we understand that your uniform is an extension of your brand. These Yoko jogging trousers are well-suited for both print and embroidery customisation. Embroidery is highly recommended for company logos or staff names on the upper thigh or cargo pocket flaps, providing a sophisticated and permanent professional finish.
For larger, more vibrant branding, our heat-transfer printing process is an excellent alternative, especially for bold safety messaging. All customisation is managed in-house by our expert team in Telford, who have been perfecting garment branding since 1976. We ensure that any branding applied does not compromise the high-visibility properties of the garment.
Use Cases
These trousers are ideal for professionals in the construction, logistics, and delivery sectors who require high-visibility protection but prefer the flexibility of a jogger. The Orange variant is specifically certified for railway use, making it a staple for trackside workers. Additionally, the Black and Navy options are perfect for staff in environments requiring enhanced visibility without full EN ISO 20471 compliance, such as event security or private warehouse operations.

Practical Advice
These jogging trousers feature an elasticated waist, making them quite forgiving in terms of fit. We recommend selecting your standard waist size for the best results. For those working in colder environments, the medium-weight fabric layers well over thermal base layers without feeling overly bulky or restrictive.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-visibility performance and the integrity of the water-repellent finish, we recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 40°C using a synthetic cycle. Exceeding this temperature can damage the polyester fibres and degrade the reflective tape.
Avoid the use of bleaching agents or biological washing powders, as these contain chemicals that can break down the fluorescent pigments and the water-repellent coating. This garment should not be ironed, as direct heat will melt the synthetic fabric and destroy the retro-reflective properties.
Do not tumble dry, wring, or dry clean this item. Instead, allow it to air dry naturally. To ensure continued safety compliance, please note that this garment has a maximum limit of 25 wash cycles; beyond this point, the reflective materials may no longer meet the required safety standards for high-visibility clothing.
