Product profile: Eco-friendly high-vis wear

When you are out cycling or even walking the dog, you need to say visible to road users, but common high-visibility gear is made for construction workers, not for leisure, and it’s made from synthetic materials that aren’t exactly eco-friendly.

Hey Reflect’o has addressed these issues with a range of reflective high-vis leisure gear made in Adelaide from natural fibres like hemp and organic cotton, and recycled polyester.

The clothes are printed in fluoro colours using a waterless process that took a year to perfect, while reflective materials are applied by hand.

There is a wide range of designs from local artists and designers, including vests, coats, T-shirts, leggings, backpack covers, and caps, kids’ vests, plus dog and cat accessories to make sure your pets are seen too.
