Being seen/Staying safe!

[Susieque]

I'm looking for some suggestions for something to wear over my textiles to make sure I can be seen!

My jacket and trousers are all black, and I only have little reflectors on the knees of my trousers.

Not keen on those band thingys and bearing in mind I'm a girlie, looks/image plays an important part in my choice!

what about a really colourfull or bright lid then

[Susieque]

Good idea Craig, but can't afford a new lid - mine's not very old anyway. Its patterned but only black/grey/white!

Thanks Tim - looks quite good. Think we bought my friend something similar for use on her pushbike!

Yup, i love them rosie... must get him to get in touch... x

[Susieque]

@ Cruz!!!

Cheers for the link Rosie - I remember noticing yours and thinking it looked good! There are some nice designs and I like the way they zip rather than velcro. As well as being Hi-Viz, are the white designs reflective - and how do the sizes compare to girlie sizes?

Should get TMBF ones!!!!

[Susieque]

just read website properly - please ignore the above questions Rosie!

i don't see how a dayglo vest adds to style, just safety, but id rather go for a band than a billowing vest... each to their own.. i should have read the question...

[Susieque]

no they don't really - just don't want a normal builders type vest!

The zip vests like Rosie has got fit quite snugly and can be adjusted I think, so they don't flap about.

[Rosie]

the "Zip-vest" I use is mesh so it doesn't flap around and there are laced eyelets down each side to pull in to fit snugly.

I find they look "different" during the day and really come into their own at night AND you can choose which design that you want or even get them custom made
