Engineered for Performance

The Yoko Hi-Vis Waterproof GO/RT Overtrousers are specifically engineered for the rail and transport industries, meeting the stringent RIS-3279-TOM standard (formerly GO/RT 3279). Constructed from a high-visibility orange 300D polyester fabric with a PU coating, these trousers provide exceptional conspicuity in trackside environments where contrast against the background is critical for safety. The material is 100% waterproof, supported by stitched and taped seams that prevent water ingress even during heavy storms, ensuring that rail engineers and maintenance crews remain dry and focused. In addition to the rail specification, these trousers also conform to EN ISO 20471 Class 1 and EN343, marking them as a high-quality piece of Hi-Vis Trousers suitable for a wide range of hazardous applications. The durability of the 300D Oxford weave ensures resistance to snagging and tearing, which is essential when working near ballast, sleepers, and vegetation.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Functionality on the tracks requires gear that is easy to manage and comfortable to wear for long durations. The HVS462 features a fully elasticated waistband, allowing for a secure yet non-restrictive fit over varying layers of under-garments. This flexibility is crucial for workers who may need to layer up during night shifts or winter maintenance works. The leg design incorporates open ends that facilitate quick changing over safety boots, with stud adjusters provided to tighten the hem around the ankle. This not only prevents the fabric from catching on equipment but also stops draughts and splashes from entering from below. Two side access pockets are included, allowing the wearer to reach keys, communication devices, or tools stored in their under-trousers without having to remove the waterproof layer. Lightweight and easy to stow when not in use, these overtrousers are a practical addition to any rail worker's kit bag.

Ideal Workplace Applications

• Rail track maintenance and engineering (RIS-3279-TOM).
• Transport logistics and signalling.
• Emergency response in transport sectors.

Corporate Branding & Compatibility

While primarily a functional safety layer, these trousers maintain a professional appearance for your workforce. They are best utilised as part of a full uniform system. We recommend you style alongside Hi-Vis Jackets to maximise visibility and weather protection.
