Product Overview
A safety vest needs to be noticeable, but it also needs a way to release when staying attached could create a hazard. The Rothco Security 5-Point Breakaway Safety Vest addresses both needs with reflective tape across the upper body and hook-and-loop connections that allow the vest to separate in an emergency. Its lightweight polyester construction makes it easy to add over work clothing without unnecessary bulk.
Five-point release with hook-and-loop closures
The breakaway design uses closures at the front, sides, and shoulders rather than relying on a single opening. These connections allow the vest to tear away when emergency release is needed. For security personnel, construction workers, and others whose jobs call for quick-release clothing, this is an important distinction from a conventional vest that stays fastened around the body.
Reflective coverage across the torso
Two-inch-wide reflective tape runs across the chest, waist, and shoulders, helping make the wearer more noticeable in low-light conditions. Placing the tape across several areas of the upper body provides reflective coverage beyond a single strip. It is a useful feature for duties where coworkers, vehicle operators, or other people need to recognize someone's presence.
The polyester fabric is durable enough for routine work use, while the lightweight construction keeps this uniform layer from adding much bulk. That makes it suitable for wearing over other clothing during a long shift, especially when visibility gear needs to remain part of your outfit throughout the day.
