Non FR Hi-Vis

Yes, the hood and long sleeves on the lightweight hooded tee add coverage against direct sun exposure, which is useful for outdoor jobs like landscaping, road work, or warehouse yard work. The 3.5oz poly birdeye fabric stays breathable even with the added coverage, so it doesn't feel overly hot in warm conditions.

Yes, the lightweight 3.5oz construction makes it easy to layer under a heavier work jacket or coat once temperatures drop. Since it's not flame resistant, it should only be paired with other non-FR outerwear rather than mixed into an FR-required uniform.

Non-FR hi-vis poly fabric is generally lighter and less expensive than FR-treated or inherently FR fabrics, but it can be more prone to wear from repeated washing and heavy daily use over the same timeframe. For jobs with rough daily conditions but no fire risk, it's still a practical and cost-effective choice.

The bright orange and yellow colors used in these hooded tees are chosen specifically for high visibility, but exact ANSI class compliance should be confirmed against the reflective striping and coverage requirements listed on the product page. Checking your job site's specific ANSI class requirement before purchasing is the safest way to ensure compliance.

Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle and avoid high heat drying, since excessive heat can cause the polyester fabric to fade or lose its vibrant hi-vis color faster. Air drying or tumble drying on low heat helps the tee hold both its shape and its brightness through repeated washes.

Non-FR hi-vis pieces shouldn't be worn as part of a required FR uniform system, since mixing non-FR fabric into that layering can compromise the overall protection if a flash fire or arc flash event occurs. If your job site requires both hi-vis and FR protection, choosing FR-rated hi-vis pieces instead keeps the uniform fully compliant.
