The Yoko YK009 Hi-vis Reflective Border Tabard is an essential piece of equipment for those requiring visibility and identification during outdoor activities and corporate events. Engineered for versatility, this tabard bridges the gap between casual sportswear and professional workwear, offering a lightweight solution that fits comfortably over existing clothing. Its design prioritises visibility through a reflective border, ensuring that the wearer remains conspicuous in low-light environments without the bulk of a full safety vest.
Constructed from a 100% polyester lightweight fabric, this tabard is designed to be worn for extended periods without causing fatigue or restriction of movement. The fabric choice is deliberate; it is durable enough to withstand the rigours of outdoor promotional activities while remaining breathable enough for active use, such as football or cycling.
The performance of the YK009 is rooted in its simplicity. The side adjustments are particularly beneficial for teams where multiple people may need to share garments, or for individuals who require extra room for layering over heavy winter coats. The reflective border is integrated into the design to ensure it does not snag, maintaining a professional appearance throughout its lifespan.
This tabard is specifically designed with customisation in mind. Given the generous decoration areas on the front and back, it is particularly well-suited for large-scale screen printing or heat transfer, which are ideal for bold logos and slogans that need to be seen from a distance during events.
For a more formal and professional appearance, embroidery is an excellent choice for smaller logos or staff names. Our in-house team at MyWorkwear, established in 1976 and based in Telford, uses state-of-the-art machinery to ensure that your branding is applied with precision, maintaining the integrity of the fabric while delivering a high-quality finish.
This garment is perfectly suited for a wide variety of scenarios, from family hiking trips and charity cycling events to professional marshalling at sporting venues. It is equally effective for promotional teams who need to stand out in a crowd while maintaining a unified, professional look. The inclusion of child sizes makes it a superior choice for school trips and youth sports teams.
Since 1976, MyWorkwear has been a trusted partner for businesses and individuals across the UK. Operating from our specialist facility in Telford, we combine decades of technical expertise with a commitment to quality. When you choose us, you are benefiting from nearly half a century of experience in customisation and garment selection, ensuring your team looks the part every time.
Due to the generous adjustment provided by the side elastics, we recommend considering what will be worn underneath the tabard when selecting a size. If the tabard is intended for winter use over thick parkas, opting for the larger end of the size range is advisable. The child-to-3XL range ensures that entire teams, regardless of stature, can be outfitted in matching gear.
To maintain the high-visibility properties and the integrity of your custom branding, we recommend a maximum washing temperature of 40°C. Using a synthetic wash cycle will help prevent the polyester fibres from breaking down prematurely.
Avoid the use of biological detergents and bleaching agents, as these can dull the colours and damage the reflective border, significantly reducing the garment's effectiveness. This tabard should not be ironed, tumble dried, or wrung out, as high heat and mechanical stress can distort the fabric and peel away any printed customisation.
We advise against dry cleaning; instead, use a cold rinse and a short spin cycle. Please note that the reflective properties of the garment are rated for a maximum of 25 wash cycles, after which the visibility levels may begin to diminish. Adhering to these instructions ensures your investment remains professional and functional for as long as possible.
