Engineered for Performance

Safety is paramount when managing groups of children, whether for school trips, walking buses, or outdoor events. The ProRTX Kids Waistcoat is a professional-grade safety garment scaled down for younger wearers. The HV Yellow and HV Orange variants are certified to EN 1150:1999, a specific standard for non-professional high visibility clothing, ensuring that children are clearly visible to drivers and supervisors in low-light or busy environments. Constructed from the same robust 120gsm polyester as adult industrial workwear, this vest offers durability that withstands rough play and frequent use. The inclusion of high-quality reflective tape over the shoulders and around the torso maximizes 360-degree visibility. While the solid colours are non-certified, they serve as excellent team identifiers for sports days or club activities. This vest is an essential component of PPE protocols for educational institutions and youth organisations prioritising child safety.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Designed for ease of use, the RX70J features a simple tear and release (velcro) front fastening. This allows children to put on and remove the vest independently, promoting autonomy while saving time for teachers and guardians during chaotic transitions. The 'tear away' nature of the fastening is also a critical safety feature, ensuring the garment releases quickly if it becomes snagged on playground equipment or fences, preventing injury. The lightweight 120gsm fabric prevents overheating, allowing the vest to be worn comfortably over school uniforms, winter coats, or Kids Jackets without restricting movement. The generous sizing accommodates rapid growth spurts and bulky winter layers, making it a versatile choice for year-round safety. Its machine-washable nature ensures that muddy stains from outdoor excursions can be easily removed, keeping the high-visibility fluorescent fabric bright and effective.

Ideal Workplace Applications

• School Trips & Excursions
• Walking Buses & Road Safety
• Sports Events & Team Identification

Corporate Branding & Compatibility

These vests are perfect for printing school crests, club logos, or emergency contact numbers directly onto the fabric. Customisation helps in quickly identifying children belonging to a specific group in crowded public spaces. For a complete team look, coordinate with Kids Hoodies in matching colours.
