Balancing Comfort and Safety in Workwear

This forces most people into the same clumsy compromise. They choose the comfort of shorts, but then have to throw a hot, sweaty safety vest over their shirt just to be seen.

It’s a solution that defeats itself. You’re still wearing an extra, uncomfortable layer, and the whole setup looks unprofessional. This leaves you wondering why it’s so hard to find a simple, single garment that does both jobs.

The reason you can’t find what you’re looking for is simple: most reflective shorts are built around a “one-size-fits-all” safety standard. They use tape designed to meet the strict ANSI/ISEA 107 classifications. While this level of visibility is absolutely essential for certain high-risk jobs, it’s often excessive and impractical for millions of other hardworking professionals.

This leads to two major problems:

A New Standard: “Enhanced Visibility” vs. “ANSI Class”

We knew there had to be a better way. We decided to create our own category of reflective workwear, designed for the professional who needs practical safety without the unnecessary bulk.

Our “Enhanced Visibility” tape is different by design. We start with a premium, flexible reflective strip and that is sewn onto vibrant nylon ribbons in either bright lime or fluorescent orange.

The result?

It’s not about meeting a specific ANSI class. It’s about providing smart, effective visibility for the work you actually do.

Who are these shorts for? They are for any professional who has ever wished for a simpler, more comfortable way to stay safe.

• For the Warehouse Associate: Navigate the floor and stay visible to forklift traffic without having to wear a hot, annoying vest over your shirt.
• For the Landscaper or Mover: Work safely during those early morning or late evening hours while staying cool and comfortable all day long.
• For the Tow Truck Driver: Have a baseline of safety for every roadside call without having to immediately gear up in a full, heavy vest. The professional look of our tape is an added bonus.
