 High-visibility clothing, a type of personal protective equipment, is clothing worn that has highly reflective properties or a color that is easily discernible from any background.
Yellow coats worn by emergency services are common examples.
Part of the surface of the garment may have retro-reflective stripes.
This way they become much more visible in the dark for observers near a light source, such as the driver of a car with its headlights on. The pattern of the retro-reflecting parts also helps to distinguish objects and people.
For greater visibility during the daytime, very bright colors are used for the main body of the garment by means of fluorescent material.
