Why the Portwest L044 is the #1 Choice for Warm-Weather High-Visibility Workwear
- Ultra-Lightweight & Breathable Fabric Made from 100% moisture-wicking polyester birdseye knit (5.5 oz), the L044 keeps workers cool and dry even in 90°F+ heat. Unlike traditional heavy cotton hi-vis shirts, this lightweight design prevents heat stress while maintaining durability.
- Advanced Segmented Heat-Applied Reflective Tape Portwest’s innovative segmented tape moves with the wearer, eliminating stiffness and increasing comfort during reaching, bending, and lifting. The perforated reflective strips also improve airflow – a feature workers love during long summer shifts.
- 360° Visibility with 2” Fluorescent Yellow Background The bright yellow fabric combined with 2” silver segmented tape on the torso and sleeves delivers true 360-degree visibility, meeting ANSI Class 2 requirements for low-light and daytime conditions.
- Designed for Real-World Use
- Generous fit for unrestricted movement
- Crew neck for all-day comfort
- Side vents for extra breathability
- UPF 40+ sun protection
- Machine washable (retains color and reflectivity after 50+ washes)
