There are many styles of safety vest available, each of which has been designed to maximise both comfort and functionality. Closures are an essential component of the garment, with zipper-front vests offering a secure fit that prevents flapping during use. These closures are often reinforced with straps or buckles to ensure durability and functionality. Hook-and-loop (Velcro) fastenings are a common feature on lightweight mesh vests, offering users a straightforward system for donning and doffing the vest, as well as allowing for adjustability. Some heavy-duty vests are equipped with snap or breakaway fasteners, ensuring a secure fit without snags.
Safety vests are also equipped with multiple utility pockets and features for tools, communication, and identification. Many models feature chest pockets (including one for a mobile phone) and lower hip pockets with secure fastenings. The pockets are designed with specific purpose in mind, such as accommodating radios, pens or retractable keychains, to ensure that essential items are always within easy reach. Certain high-end vests are equipped with integrated ID/badge windows or dual-orientation ID holders, allowing for the display of cards in either a vertical or horizontal orientation. These practical features prevent items from falling out and help to maintain high levels of productivity among workers.
The durability of the stitching and materials further enhances the performance of the vest. High-visibility vests are often constructed with double-stitched seams and bar-tacks at stress points, ensuring durability in daily use. The reinforced binding on the edges of the product is designed to prevent fraying, ensuring the durability and reliability of the product. Premium vests may feature heat-sealed binding around reflective tape for added strength. The end result of our product development process is a vest that is both secure and durable.
