high-visibility

Bright, attention-grabbing appearance

High-visibility describes clothing or gear designed to make the wearer conspicuous, typically featuring bright colors like fluorescent yellow or orange with reflective strips: high-visibility vests, high-visibility jackets.

Construction workers, road crews, and cyclists wear high-visibility gear to be seen in traffic or low-light conditions.
