Hi-Vis Polycotton Work Jacket Class 3 - Breathable 80/20 Blend | Yoko

Breathable comfort meets industrial durability. This 80/20 polycotton work jacket combines EN 471 Class 3 maximum visibility with the natural comfort advantage polycotton delivers over pure synthetic hi-vis jackets—keeping you visible, protected, and genuinely comfortable through full shifts of physical work.

The 80% polyester, 20% cotton blend at 245gsm weight positions polyester on the outside for abrasion resistance and weather protection while cotton faces inward against skin for breathable comfort. This engineering prevents the clammy, sweaty discomfort pure polyester jackets create during active work—the cotton interior actively manages perspiration while polyester exterior withstands jobsite wear.

EN 471 Class 3 certification—the highest visibility standard—comes from dual reflective bands circling body and arms, ensuring 360-degree conspicuity from all angles. This maximum-level protection suits high-risk environments including roadside work, construction sites near traffic, utilities operations, and any role where being seen can prevent serious injury.

Two chest pockets with button-secured flaps provide practical storage for documents, tools, or personal items while the flap design protects contents from rain and debris. The buttoned cuff fastening allows adjustment for comfort and accommodates different arm sizes while preventing sleeves riding up during overhead work or equipment operation.

The polycotton construction withstands industrial washing without the shrinkage of pure cotton or pilling problems of cheap polyester. This jacket maintains professional appearance and proper fit through demanding wash cycles required for genuinely dirty work environments—construction, utilities, ground maintenance, or any role where daily laundering is necessary.
