The Yoko YK102 kids' hi-vis waistcoat is a thoughtfully designed safety garment that prioritises visibility for younger users. Constructed from lightweight polyester, this waistcoat incorporates a reflective border alongside standard reflective tapes, providing an additional layer of visibility in low-light conditions. Whether for school outings or evening activities, it offers a professional level of safety equipment tailored for children.
Engineered from 100% polyester fabric, this waistcoat is designed to be exceptionally lightweight. This ensures that it does not become a burden when worn over regular clothing or school uniforms. The fabric is chosen for its ability to hold vibrant high-visibility colours and maintain its structure throughout the school year. The addition of the reflective trim around the edges is not merely decorative; it serves to define the silhouette of the wearer more clearly than standard tape alone, providing peace of mind for parents and supervisors alike.
This waistcoat is an excellent canvas for customisation, supporting both print and embroidery. For school trips or organisational branding, embroidery provides a durable and professional appearance for logos or school crests. If you require large, bold messaging or individual names across the back, our high-quality printing process is highly effective. All customisation is managed by our expert in-house team in Telford, who have been perfecting garment decoration since 1976.
This garment is perfectly suited for a variety of scenarios including school walking buses, cycling to school, or organised group excursions. It is also a practical choice for equestrian activities or any situation where a child needs to be easily spotted by motorists or supervisors in busy environments.
With a heritage dating back to 1976, MyWorkwear has decades of experience in providing dependable safety garments. Based in Telford, our technical expertise ensures that every piece of workwear—including our junior range—is handled with the same precision and care as our professional industrial gear.
When selecting a size, consider the clothing that will be worn underneath. If the waistcoat is intended for use during winter months over heavy coats, you may wish to choose a larger size to ensure a comfortable fit and full closure of the hook and loop fastening. Refer to our size guide for specific measurements ranging from Small (28/30") to Large (36/38").
To maintain the high-visibility properties of this garment, we recommend a maximum washing temperature of 40°C using a synthetic cycle. It is important to avoid biological washing powders, as the enzymes can degrade the retro-reflective materials over time, reducing their effectiveness.
Bleaching is strictly prohibited as it will damage the polyester fibres and the fluorescent dyes. Do not tumble dry or wring the waistcoat; the heat and mechanical stress can distort the reflective tapes. Instead, allow the garment to air dry naturally. This waistcoat should not be ironed, as direct heat will melt the fabric and the safety tapes.
Please note that this garment is rated for a maximum of 25 wash cycles. Exceeding this limit may result in the reflective materials failing to meet their original safety specifications. Avoid dry cleaning, as the chemical solvents used are too harsh for the specialised hi-vis coatings.
