reflective vests

High-visibility workwear

Reflective vests are garments made of bright fabric with strips of material that bounce light back toward its source, making the wearer visible in low-light conditions.

Construction workers, crossing guards, and cyclists wear them for safety.

Runners and joggers often wear them at dawn or dusk: I grabbed my reflective vest for an early morning run.
