Ergodyne adds new XS hi-vis vests/shirt sizes

June 1, 2016
KEYWORDS ANSI/ISEA 107-2015 Standard / hi-vis / high-visibility / small workers / Tenacious Work Gear

ErgodyneErgodyne announced today the addition of an extra small size to several garments in the popular GloWear® Hi-Vis Apparel Line– utilizing a new provision in the updated ANSI/ISEA 107-2015 Standard for Hi-Visibility Apparel and Accessories permitting a “smallest size” exception to the minimum area requirements for background materials used in Type R Class 2 and 3 garments.

The four GloWear® hi-vis vests and one t-shirt now available in XS include:

  • 8205HL Type R Class 2 Economy Mesh Vest
  • 8215BA Type R Class 2 Economy Breakaway Mesh Vest
  • 8229Z Type R Class 2 Economy Two-Tone Mesh Vest
  • 8249Z Type R Class 2 Economy Surveyors Vest
  • 8289 Type R Class 2 T-Shirt

No longer will smaller workers have to worry about a work shirt or vest drooping down past their knees, possibly catching in equipment or machinery. This change will allow worksites to better accommodate workers of various sizes.

“When a vest/shirt is not worn properly, its function is compromised,” said Megan Tansom, senior product specialist, Ergodyne. “We always want workers to be highly visible and fully compliant in their work environments – and that starts with wearing PPE that fits.”

Ideal for smaller workers who want safer, better-fitting hi-vis protection, the selection of GloWear® XS vests/shirt are available NOW in lime and orange at all authorized Ergodyne distributors. For more information or to purchase any of our Tenacious Work Gear®, visit www.ergodyne.com, email orders@ergodyne.com or call 800-225-8238 // (651) 642-9889.
