Safety Rain Gear

• Rain Jackets – Designed with waterproof shells, sealed seams, and reflective tape to keep workers dry and visible in wet conditions. Ideal for construction, utility work, and roadside jobs.
• Rain Bibs – Waterproof bib overalls that offer full lower-body protection. Great for heavy rain, muddy worksites, or extended outdoor shifts.
• Non-ANSI Rain Jackets – Functional rainwear in black, pink, and blue designed for low-risk, non-regulated environments. Perfect for teams or events where ANSI compliance isn’t required.
• Class 3 Rain Gear – Enhanced visibility rainwear with more fluorescent fabric and reflective coverage for high-risk, high-traffic, or low-light conditions.

To remove wrinkles from reflective rain gear, never use a hot iron, as high heat can damage waterproof materials. Hang the garment in a warm, humid environment (like a bathroom during a hot shower) to relax creases. Gently smooth wrinkles by hand while the fabric is warm and slightly damp, and always follow the care label. Store on a hanger instead of folding to prevent future creasing.

Always follow the care label. Most reflective rain gear should be machine washed in cold water on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, or harsh chemicals that can degrade waterproof coatings and reflective tape; turn garments inside out before washing. Air dry when possible, or tumble dry on low/no heat to help preserve water resistance and ANSI compliance. For more tips, see our guide: How to Clean Reflective Clothing.

To add your logo to a hi vis rain jacket, you can request custom screen printing through our in-house customization services at KwikSafety. We offer fast, professional logo placement on waterproof outerwear while maintaining ANSI compliance and garment integrity. To get started, fill out our Customization Request Form and explore our Customization Gallery to see real examples of branded rain gear.
Note: Embroidery is not recommended for rain jackets, as it may compromise waterproofing.

Hi visibility rain gear uses fluorescent fabric and reflective tape arranged for 360° conspicuity, meeting ANSI/ISEA visibility criteria. Standard safety rain gear may be waterproof and durable but lacks the brightness and certified reflective coverage. Choose hi vis when you face moving vehicles, low light, or complex backgrounds. Standard options fit low-risk, non-regulated tasks.

Key features include waterproof shells with sealed seams, breathable linings, and adjustable hoods or cuffs to manage weather and mobility. Reflective tape patterns provide full-body visibility from all angles. Practical add-ons like storm flaps, zippered pockets, and bib suspenders improve usability. Look for labels indicating ANSI/ISEA compliance.

ANSI/ISEA 107 outlines Class 1, Class 2, and Class 3 based on the amount of fluorescent fabric and reflective tape. Class 1 offers the least coverage for low-risk areas, while Class 2 suits moderate traffic or complex backgrounds. Class 3 provides the highest visibility for high-speed traffic or low-light work. Explore our Class 3 options here: Class 3 Rain Gear.

The best choices balance waterproofing, breathability, and durability, such as PU-coated polyester or PVC-coated fabrics for heavy weather. Taped or heat-sealed seams prevent water ingress at stitch lines. Quality reflective tape maintains brightness after washing and flexing. Select materials that meet your job’s abrasion and weather demands.

Yes. Hi vis rain jackets and bibs still provide conspicuity in dry weather, which is valuable near traffic or moving equipment. Many styles include ventilation or breathable membranes to prevent overheating. Use them when visibility is critical, regardless of precipitation.
