Default Trying to find specific Hi-Viz waistcoat

A while ago i came across (on either here or Visordown) a link for a rather niffty Hi-Viz waistcoat. It was not the usual type of affair from the safety shops costing a few quid. It came in either yellow or orange and had all sorts of '' SWAT '' style pockets and bits and bobs. It cost around the £60 mark I have had a search but with no luck and even looked via Google with no luck. Any links etc ?

The Hi Viz clothing like that is quite good for site use, there's T shirts as well so you can take layers off and still be OK to work on site.

Of course there's a danger of being set upon by the "Hi Viz doesn't work and is actually a sophisticated camouflage" crew but there's also some waterproof Hi Viz stuff so you might be safe from the flying spittle

It's really close thanks. i seem to remember it was not from a company going by the name of a well known chocolate bar But it does look more substantial than the usual '' flappy '' affair. Thanks again.

IIRC there's a US Co. doing something like that.

Boogered if I know the name, though.
