SafetyShirtz SS360 ANSI Class 3 Type R Graphic Hoods - High Visibility

Our review of the SafetyShirtz SS360 ANSI Class 3 Type R Graphic Hoods finds it best suited to workers who need heavyweight warmth combined with certified high visibility on roads and job sites. The single biggest reason to consider this hoodie is its ANSI/ISEA 107-2020 Class 3 Type R rating, which makes it appropriate where maximum visibility is required, while the 13 oz., 95% polyester 5% spandex blend and combed fleece interior deliver notable warmth and comfort for cold morning shifts.

Key Features

• ANSI Class 3 Type R Rating: Provides certified high visibility suitable for road construction and other hazardous outdoor worksites where maximum reflectivity is required.
• Heavyweight Construction: The 13 oz. fabric weight adds insulation for chilly starts without feeling overly bulky on the job.
• Durable Stitching: Double-needle stitching reinforces stress points so the hoodie holds up to daily wear in demanding environments.
• Large Hood: A roomy hood gives extra protection from wind, cold and light rain while allowing room for a hard hat when needed.
• Soft Fleece Interior: The combed fleece inner shell improves next-to-skin comfort and helps retain heat during long outdoor shifts.
• Stretch Blend: The 95% polyester and 5% spandex mix allows comfortable movement while maintaining the garment's shape.

Who It's For

This hoodie is aimed at road construction crews, utility workers, and other professionals who must meet ANSI Class 3 visibility standards and need an extra layer of warmth while working outdoors. It suits individuals who value a heavy, durable sweatshirt with reflective graphics that attract attention.

Those who should look elsewhere include workers who need waterproof outerwear for sustained heavy rain or people who prefer ultralight layering; the SS360 is heavyweight and warm but not marketed as waterproof, and it may be more warmth than required for mild climates.

Pros & Cons

Cons
