As part of the wider hi vis jackets range, they are widely used across logistics, construction, warehousing, transport and general site work where ease of movement and everyday comfort are important.

Softshell jackets are often chosen for active roles, milder weather and layered workwear systems. Depending on the garment, features may include stretch fabrics, wind resistance, water resistance, hoods and practical storage pockets.

What hi vis class do I need for a softshell jacket?

The required visibility class depends on the workplace risk assessment, the role being carried out and the site rules that apply. Check the garment’s certified class rather than assuming all hi vis softshell jackets provide the same level of visibility.

Are hi vis softshell jackets suitable for construction and site work?

Yes. Hi vis softshell jackets are commonly used across construction, logistics, warehousing, transport and general site work where workers need visibility with a lighter and more flexible outer layer. The correct garment should still be selected according to the workplace requirements and weather conditions.

Are hi vis softshell jackets waterproof?

Not necessarily. Many softshell jackets offer some level of wind resistance or water resistance, but they are not automatically fully waterproof. If heavy rain protection is required, compare the individual product specification or consider a dedicated hi vis traffic jacket.

Yes. Quantity price breaks are available across suitable products, making the range suitable for contractors, logistics teams, construction companies and larger workforce orders.

Are hi vis softshell jackets suitable for cold weather?

Can I wear a fleece or sweatshirt under a softshell jacket?

Do hi vis softshell jackets have hoods?

The best branding method depends on the garment design, logo and required finish. Printing can work well for detailed or larger artwork, while embroidery offers a durable stitched finish where suitable. We select appropriate branding positions around the reflective tape and garment construction.

Do you charge setup fees for branded softshell jackets?

No. There are no setup fees, whether you are customising one softshell jacket or ordering branded outerwear for a larger workforce.

Will adding a logo affect hi vis compliance?

Branding must be positioned carefully on certified high visibility garments.

Artwork placement is checked before production to help maintain the intended garment compliance where applicable.
