High Visibility Yellow Field Vest
The Malta Dynamics Hi-Vis Field Vest puts your crew in compliant, high-visibility safety apparel for daytime and low-light work. A fluorescent yellow body and contrasting retroreflective stripes make the wearer conspicuous to drivers, equipment operators, and co-workers, so a moment of distraction does not turn into an incident.
The vest is certified to ANSI/ISEA 107-2015 Type R Class 2 and uses a breathable polyester build that stays comfortable in hot, harsh conditions. A full-length zipper front makes it easy to put on and take off over a shirt or jacket. Available in sizes Medium through 3XL.
Who Needs This Product
This vest is for any worker who must be seen near traffic, moving equipment, or busy work zones. ANSI/ISEA 107 Type R Class 2 apparel is the common requirement for roadway right-of-way crews, flaggers, and survey teams, and for general construction, utility, warehouse, and grounds work where employers mandate rated high-visibility garments. Because it features certified retroreflective striping, it is suitable for both daytime and low-light conditions, unlike a hi-vis shirt without reflective tape.
Features
ANSI/ISEA 107 Class 2
Certified to the ANSI/ISEA 107-2015 Type R Class 2 standard for high-visibility safety apparel, the common rating for roadway and work-zone crews.
Fluorescent yellow body
A vibrant high-visibility yellow background makes the wearer stand out against traffic, machinery, and jobsite backgrounds.
Contrasting reflective stripes
Retroreflective striping returns vehicle headlights and work lights, keeping the wearer visible in low-light and nighttime conditions.
Zipper front closure
A full-length zipper makes the vest fast to put on and take off over a shirt, jacket, or other layers.
Breathable and durable
The polyester build is breathable yet tough, so it stays comfortable in the hottest, harshest jobsite conditions.
Sized M to 3XL
Offered in Medium through 3XL so the vest fits comfortably over base layers across a full crew.

Confirm the class your work zone requires. ANSI/ISEA 107 Class 2 apparel suits most roadway and work-zone tasks, but high-speed roadways, complex backgrounds, or nighttime work may require Class 3 garments. Verify the required class with your safety officer or the MUTCD work-zone plan, and retire any vest once its fluorescent color has faded or its reflective striping is damaged or soiled.
Compliance Standards
ANSI/ISEA 107-2015 Class 2
The American standard for high-visibility safety apparel. Class 2 sets minimum background and retroreflective material areas for moderate-risk work zones.
Type R
Roadway and temporary traffic control use. Type R garments are intended for workers exposed to vehicle traffic and roadway equipment.
MUTCD and 23 CFR 634
Federal-aid highway right-of-way work requires ANSI 107 compliant high-visibility apparel for all workers on foot.
OSHA 1926 and 1910
OSHA cites high-visibility apparel under its general duty and traffic-control requirements to protect workers exposed to vehicle and equipment traffic.
Typical Applications
Care and Sizing
To keep the vest compliant and the reflective striping effective, follow these guidelines.
- Machine wash cold with like colors and tumble dry low, or follow the garment care label, to protect the fluorescent dye and reflective tape.
- Avoid bleach and high-heat drying, which can dull fluorescent color and degrade reflective material.
- Inspect the stripes before each shift; retire the vest if the reflective material is cracked, peeling, or heavily soiled.
- Retire and replace the vest once the fluorescent background color has faded, because a faded garment no longer meets its visibility rating.
- Sizes run Medium through 3XL and are cut to fit over a shirt or jacket; size up if you layer heavily.
