Hi Vis Work Shirts

Hi vis work shirts here divide into day-rated styles without reflective tape, and day-and-night rated styles with 3M or CSR reflective tape in H, X-back, hoop-and-shoulder, or biomotion configurations. Within each group, the range covers ladies and mens cuts, and long sleeve and short sleeve options. Materials are predominantly 100% cotton and cotton drill, with ripstop cotton available on select long sleeve styles for added durability on rougher sites. Cool Breeze construction appears across several long sleeve styles, with vertical venting or underarm mesh gussets that let heat escape while the sleeves protect against UV exposure. Button-down and press-stud closures are both available. Chest pocket configurations vary across styles, with some offering large flap pockets with locking mechanisms suited to holding tools or a phone. At the upper end, flame retardant styles in 190gsm cotton drill meet ARC ratings and carry anti-static and electrical protection properties, making them a distinct tier for electrical and high-risk environments. Colour options across the range include hi-vis yellow, hi-vis orange, and two-tone combinations pairing these with navy or green contrast panels.

Tradies and site workers who wear these through a full day on a construction site or road project get a shirt that does two jobs. It's a compliant safety garment and it's got the company name on it, which means every worker is a moving brand presence on every job.

All styles can be screen printed or embroidered. Embroidery suits the chest logo position on cotton drill fabric particularly well, giving a clean, permanent result that holds through repeated industrial washing.

Technical & Compliance

What is the difference between day-rated and day-and-night rated hi vis shirts?

Day-rated hi vis shirts use the fluorescent fabric colour alone, hi-vis yellow or orange, to provide visibility in daylight conditions. Day-and-night rated styles add reflective tape, which catches vehicle headlights and other light sources in low-light or dark conditions. If workers are on site after dark, near traffic, or in any low-light environment, a day-and-night rated shirt with reflective tape is the appropriate choice. Day-only styles are suitable for tasks conducted entirely in daylight away from traffic.

Do these shirts comply with Australian hi vis requirements?

Hi vis shirts on this page have been produced for Australian workwear contexts and several styles specifically note compliance with AS/NZS 4602. For roles where compliance with AS/NZS 4602 is a mandatory requirement, such as road construction, rail, or utilities work, it's worth confirming the specific rating on the individual product page before ordering, as compliance levels vary between styles.

What is the flame retardant range and when is it needed?

Flame retardant styles use 190gsm cotton drill with inherent flame resistance. The ARC-rated versions also carry anti-static and electrical arc protection properties. These are appropriate for electrical workers, utilities crews, and anyone working around ignition risks. They are a distinct upper tier within the range and carry a higher price point than the mainstream cotton and cotton drill styles.

Which reflective tape configuration gives the best visibility?

Biomotion taping follows the contours of the body and enhances the recognition of human movement in low light, making it more effective at alerting drivers than simple horizontal bands. X-back and hoop-and-shoulder configurations provide strong 360-degree visibility. H-pattern taping on the front and back is a solid general-purpose configuration. The right choice depends on the specific site and the nature of the risk. Road construction and rail environments often have specific tape configuration requirements.
