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

In this review the FONIRRA 3 Pack Hi Vis Shirts are evaluated for workers who need high visibility, breathability and durable reflective trim. The bottom line is that these shirts are best for outdoor and roadside crews who require ANSI Class 3 visibility and a lightweight, breathable fabric for long shifts; the most compelling reason to buy is the combination of 360 degree reflective coverage with a micro-mesh polyester that stands up to repeated wear while keeping the wearer cool.

Key Features

• Material: Made from 4.76 oz bird-eye knit 100% micro-mesh polyester, the fabric promotes airflow and temperature regulation for extended comfort on hot days.
• Reflective Tape: Heat applied 2-in reflective strips across shoulders, waist, back and arms provide durable, 360 degree reflectivity without stitching that can fail.
• Design: Long sleeves and a hood add sun and light protection while the black bottom half hides stains for a cleaner appearance on the job.
• Storage: A front chest pocket gives quick access to small essentials like pens, notes or ID while working.
• Standards Compliance: Shirt versions in high visibility colors meet ANSI/ISEA 107-2020 Type R, Class 3 for high-risk environments to increase on-site safety.

Who It's For

The shirts are aimed at road construction crews, utility workers, traffic control personnel and outdoor technicians who need Class 3 visibility and a lightweight, breathable garment for long outdoor shifts. The hood and long sleeves are also useful for field staff who face sun exposure or light weather while working.

These shirts are less suitable for workers who require flame resistant fabric or heavy insulation in cold climates; those with specific FR ratings or needing thick layered protection should look for garments designed for those hazards.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Lightweight micro-mesh polyester that improves airflow and comfort during extended wear.
• Durable heat applied reflective tape that holds shape and visibility after multiple washes.
• Functional details like a chest pocket, hood and black lower panel to reduce visible staining.

Cons

• Not intended as flame resistant or cold-weather protective apparel, so not ideal for every hazardous environment.
