Hi Vis Long Sleeve Safety Shirt with Hood - ANSI Class 3 FONIRRA

In this review of the Hi Vis Long Sleeve Safety Shirt with Hood the bottom line is simple: this three pack is aimed at workers and outdoor enthusiasts who need durable, breathable visibility and full coverage. The shirts deliver the most important benefit - reliable 360 degree reflectivity while staying cool in warm conditions - thanks to lightweight 4.76 oz bird-eye knit polyester and heat applied reflective tape. The addition of a hood, long sleeves and a chest pocket makes this a practical choice for construction, utilities, forestry and other jobs where visibility and sun protection matter.

Key Features

• Material: The 100% micro-mesh polyester fabric allows maximum airflow and temperature regulation so the shirt stays comfortable through long shifts.
• Reflective Tape: Heat applied 2-in reflective strips on shoulders, waist, back and arms provide long-lasting 360 degree visibility without stitching that can loosen.
• Coverage: Long sleeves and an integrated hood protect skin from sun exposure and light debris while maintaining mobility.
• Contrast Design: Black lower panels improve stain resistance and conceal dirt in high wear areas for a cleaner appearance on the job.
• Storage: A front chest pocket keeps small essentials close at hand so workers do not need to remove gloves to reach tools or notes.

Who It's For

The shirt is best for professionals in construction, road work, utilities, forestry and similar fields who require ANSI/ISEA visibility (Type R, Class 3 for most colors) and want breathable gear for warm conditions. It also suits outdoor hobbyists who need full coverage and reflective safety on early morning or evening activities.

Those who should look elsewhere include workers needing heavy thermal insulation or flame resistant fabrics, and users who require Class 1 certification specifically from the blue and black variants noted as lower class; for cold-weather layering or arc-rated PPE, pick garments designed for those hazards.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Lightweight micro-mesh polyester offers strong airflow and a comfortable fit for long shifts.
• Durable heat applied tape retains shape and reflectivity after multiple washes.
• Full coverage with hood and long sleeves increases sun protection and visibility in low light.

Cons

• The shirt is not intended as thermal outerwear, so it needs layering in cold environments.
