The Result Core Motorist Hi-Vis Safety Vest in Yellow, size L, is designed for adults needing enhanced visibility in various work environments. Its primary benefit is increased safety through high-visibility materials and reflective elements, though its generous sizing means it's best worn as an over-garment for proper fit and effectiveness.

The vest is suitable for a chest size of 45-46.5 inches.

FAQs
What material is the vest made of?
The vest is made from 100% Polyester fabric with a weight of 160gsm.
What does 'generous in size' mean?
It means the vest is cut larger than standard sizing to allow it to be easily worn over other clothing like jackets or sweatshirts.
How should I clean the vest?
It should be machine washed according to the care label, typically on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat.
What is the purpose of the black bound edges?
The black bound edges provide a clean, professional finish to the garment and help to increase its overall durability.
What size chest does the 'L' size vest fit?
The 'L' size vest is designed to fit a chest size of approximately 45 to 46.5 inches.
Are the reflective tapes sewn on or printed?
The vest features 50mm sewn-on safety tapes.
What is the weight of the fabric?
The fabric has a weight of 160gsm (grams per square meter).
Troubleshooting
Vest is not very visible.
Ensure the vest is worn fastened and lies flat. Check that the reflective tapes are clean and undamaged. Wash according to care instructions if soiled.
The fit is too loose.
This vest is designed for a generous fit to be worn as an over-garment. If it still feels too loose, consider wearing thicker layers underneath or opting for a smaller size if available.
Reflective tapes appear damaged.
Inspect the tapes for cracks, peeling, or delamination. If significant damage is present, the reflective performance may be compromised, and the vest should be replaced.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
Avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners. Air drying can sometimes result in stiffness; a low-heat tumble dry may help restore some softness. Ensure the garment is not overloaded in the washing machine.
