    The ultimate hi-viz vest.

    Introducing the "New and Improved" Hi-Viz safety vest.

    Advantages over a regular vest:
    Does not ride up on your jacket.
    More secure dual-fastening, with zip and waist belt.
    Reflective panels.
    Emergency whistle.
    Additional padding to protect the rider from contact with the tarseal.
    Adjustable to suit most adults.

    Nice, not sure about the whistle can see the advantages, especially if you live near a lake ..

    Know where I can get a decent High Vis vest?

    Lovely. I've got a yellow one, and a nice orange one similar to that from previous employers. I'm scared to wear them on the bike around Wellington in case I distract aircraft landing at the airport.
