How to choose
For high visibility, look for garments compliant with the EN ISO 20471 standard and check the class, which depends on the amount of fluorescent and retroreflective material: the choice depends on where you work and how high the risk of not being seen is. For everyday use, consider the fabric, the fit and the size using the chart for each product. If you need flame-retardant or antistatic garments, choose the models expressly indicated.

Frequently asked questions: Work and Hi-Vis T-Shirts
What are work T-shirts used for?
Work T-shirts are lightweight garments for building sites, workshops and maintenance, to wear under a vest or jacket, or on their own in warm months. Cotton ones are practical for everyday work, while technical ones are designed for forestry and outdoor work. Choose the model according to the activity you carry out.
Which standard applies to high-visibility T-shirts?
High-visibility T-shirts follow EN ISO 20471, the same standard as vests, and depending on the area of fluorescent and retroreflective material they belong to a class. Check the class stated on the label and the presence of retroreflective bands. A T-shirt with no reference to the standard should not be considered a high-visibility garment.
Which flame-retardant T-shirt should be chosen for work?
For work with a risk of flames or heat the range offers flame-retardant T-shirts, such as the Portwest PW3 Modaflame Knit in class 1 FR. The reference standard for protective clothing against heat and flame is EN ISO 11612. Check that the sheet states the class and the type of flame-retardant treatment.
Which T-shirt for forestry work?
For forestry and outdoor work there are Husqvarna technical T-shirts, such as the Asphalt versions in orange and green, and the Xplorer T-shirt with logo. Choose the colour according to the visibility required in the woods and the comfort under PPE. T-shirts do not replace the protective garments required for chainsaw use.
Which variables matter when choosing a work T-shirt?
The variables are colour, visibility class, fit, fabric and sleeve length. The range includes cotton T-shirts such as the Figi from U-Power, technical ones such as the Teres WFU418BC, and high-visibility polo shirts such as the Close WHL389OF. Compare the fabric composition on the sheet and the size against how you wear it.
Work T-shirt or polo shirt: which to choose?
The work polo shirt, in short or long sleeves, such as the Close or the Tape from U-Power, has a collar and looks more formal than a T-shirt. A T-shirt is simpler to wear under other garments. Choose according to the work context and the presence of any company logo to be displayed.
How do you wash a high-visibility T-shirt?
Wash the T-shirt at low temperature, inside out, without fabric softener and without bleach, so as not to damage the retroreflective bands and the fluorescent material. Dry it in the air and do not iron directly over the bands. Always follow the care label of the model.
Which fabric should be chosen for a technical T-shirt in summer?
For work in heat, choose the fabric according to the breathability stated on the sheet and the type of activity. The technical T-shirts in the range, such as the Eris and the Teres from U-Power, differ from cotton ones in material. When working in the sun, pay attention to hydration and breaks.
