RefrigiWear, a 70-year pioneer in safety apparel and insulated PPE for extremely cold work environments, now delivers its popular PolarForce® Sweatshirt in high-visibility orange.
An expansion on the popularity of high-visibility lime and solid black colors of the original PolarForce Sweatshirt, this new high-visibility orange work hoodie is designed to protect construction, transportation and logistics professionals in dark, gloomy warehouses or on high-traffic job sites.
Three Layers of Protection Against the Cold
Lightyears ahead of box store hoodies that can’t stand up to hard use, the HiVis PolarForce Sweatshirt is made with three warm and durable layers.
The outer layer stands up to scrapes, snags and strenuous work with a durable 310g fleece blend fabric. Rather than feeling stiff, this layer includes built-in stretch for unrestricted movement. Under the outershell, a 120g layer of industrial-strength polyester insulation holds heat close to the body and blocks out frosty winter weather. On the inside, a 170g soft jersey lining is breathable to prevent sweat from pooling near the skin and adding to the chill.
Feature-Rich for Maximum Functionality
More than just a hoodie for work, the HiVis PolarForce Sweatshirt is loaded with features that make it a productivity powerhouse.
Performance-Flex panels at the elbows allow accordion-style stretching for maximum range of motion without bunching or riding up, keeping the core and vital organs protected from the cold.
Grip Assist dot patterns on the inside wrist of each sleeve prevent boxes, tools, equipment and other objects from slipping during handling. Thumbholes in the cuffs make it easy to create a seal around insulated gloves, blocking freezing air and moisture from creeping up the sleeves.
The kangaroo pocket does double-duty for stowing small tools and work essentials and for adding an extra layer of abrasion-resistance when leaning over equipment or brushing against rough surfaces. A handy 2-stall pencil pocket on the left sleeve provides quick access to a penlight, a stylus, or pens and pencils.
The new HiVis PolarForce Sweatshirt in high-visibility orange is also perfect for protecting rail workers, road crews and utility linemen because it provides added contrast between the worker and the grass, trees and background foliage in which they operate.
Extended Sweatshirt Sizes Available
Available in extended men’s sizes from small to 5XL, the HiVis PolarForce Sweatshirt adds a layer of protection from wintry conditions without compromising safety or mobility.
Coordinates with Top-to-Toe Coverage
For full-body protection against frigid temperatures, the HiVis PolarForce Sweatshirt in high-visibility orange coordinates with the full PolarForce collection of insulated PPE from RefrigiWear, including high-visibility and standard insulated jackets, snow bibs, work pants, safety toe boots, touchscreen-capable gloves, and thermal beanies.
