PORTWEST PW3 HI-VIS POLO SHIRT S/S

PW3 HI-VIS POLO SHIRT S/S (T182)

Chuck away those stiff, scratchy 100% poly shirts that leave you feeling like a walking greenhouse by lunchtime. This premium PW3 short sleeve polo brings serious Cotton Comfort fabric to the job, meaning you get a soft, natural cotton feel against your skin and a rugged polyester shell on the outside. It looks incredibly sharp, handles plenty of stick, and keeps you safely visible on-site without sacrificing comfort.

Why we’d actually wear these:

• 53% Cotton / 47% Polyester "Cotton Comfort" Fabric: The ultimate hybrid weave. Soft, breathable cotton sits directly against your skin to pull moisture away, while the outer polyester guarantees the shirt won't shrink, fade, or lose its shape after a week of heavy washing.
• Texpel™ Wicking & Stain Removal Finish: This high-tech fabric coating aggressively draws sweat away from the body to keep you cool and dry, while actively preventing dirt, oil, and grease from permanently staining the fabric. No-fuzz factor at its finest.
• HiVisTex Pro Segmented Reflective Tape: Forget those solid, stiff reflective bands that feel like wearing heavy electrical tape. This heat-applied segmented tape stretches as you bend and twist, allowing maximum airflow and total freedom of movement.
• Placket Glasses & Pen Loop: A dead-simple but bloody handy built-in loop right below the buttons. Perfect for securing your safety glasses or marking pen so they don't smash on the ground when you lean over.
• Chest Pocket: A convenient front pocket designed for quick access to cards, small pads, or loose screws so you aren't constantly digging through your tool belt.
• Contrast Navy Panels: Navy blocks placed exactly where the grime, dust, and lunchtime spilled pies inevitably land, keeping you looking semi-presentable when the inspectors arrive.
• UPF 30 Sun Protection: Engineered to block out 97% of harmful Kiwi UV rays, giving you an extra layer of defense during those brutal, clear-sky summer shifts.
• Top-Tier Site Compliance: Fully certified to the classic AS/NZS 4602.1:2011 and the updated AS 4602.1:2024 Class D/N Level 2 standards—making you 100% legal and highly visible on any commercial, civil, or residential site across the country from sizes S right up to 5XL.
