VW68 Hi-Vis Softshell Vest, Railway Approved (Orange)
VW68 High-Visibility
Softshell Vest
Maximum safety meets comfortable wear – now with official rail approval.
🚆 Officially Rail Approved
Anyone working on or near railway tracks carries responsibility – for themselves and others. The VW68 meets the British rail industry standard RIS-3279-TOM in the fluorescent orange version and is fully valid in combination with EN ISO 20471. All maintenance personnel in the track area must wear orange high-visibility clothing – the VW68 meets precisely this requirement.
Safety you can feel
The VW68 High-Visibility Softshell Vest from Masterwear is more than just protective clothing – it is a well-thought-out piece of workwear for anyone who works outdoors daily under demanding conditions. Whether it's railway track maintenance, logistics or trade: This vest delivers on its promise.
Made from robust 3-layer laminate (100% polyester twill + TPU membrane + microfleece, 350 g/m²), it reliably protects against cold, wind and moisture – without being heavy or restrictive.
"Maximum visibility by day and in darkness – thanks to segmented reflective strips that provide valuable seconds of warning even in poor light conditions."
