Hi-vis jacket with "proper" reflective strips
![[Deleted User]](https://wc.vanillicon.com/c07ff78f2c008f2beadc1477c4e14820_100.png)
Just wondering if it's at all possible to get one of these.
I would really like to purchase a good running jacket, in hi-vis, with some proper reflective strips (bit like builders jackets) on them, instead of the piddly little bits most running jackets seem to have on them.
Any suggestions?

Buy the reflective tape on a separate roll.
You can put it everywhere.
🙂
Didn't one of the companies make a jacket that was entirely retro-reflective??
Good old E-Bay!
For example;

I picked up a nike flash vest, fantastic in the low light and dark, if not in a yellow or orange.
I live in the sticks so needed something to properly show the cars where I was. Since wearing it cars have even stopped as they didn't know what was coming.

Craft do some, i have the gillet type which has the big wide reflective tape like a builders hi viz. I'm sure i saw the same with arms when i got mine.
I have horses and buy hi-viz for riding on the roads which I also use for running. Shops e.g. Countrywide sell vests/waistcoats much cheaper than sports shops.
