Hi-vis rainsuits are the most complete waterproof workwear solution for UK site workers — a matched jacket and trouser set that keeps you dry and visible through a full day's work in the worst weather the UK produces. When it rains on site and visibility drops, your rainsuit needs to do two jobs at once. Ours does both, from £27.99.

Our hi-vis rainsuits are built for workers who spend full days exposed to UK weather — construction workers, road maintenance crews, groundworkers, farm workers and delivery drivers whose jobs do not stop when it rains. High-visibility fluorescent fabric and retroreflective tape across the chest, back, shoulders and lower legs keep you clearly visible in poor light and heavy rain, while sealed seams and waterproof construction keep water out through sustained downpours rather than light showers. Available in yellow and orange, sizes Small through 2XL.

Layer a hi-vis fleece hoodie underneath for cold, wet conditions — the standard UK site layering system from October through March — or wear the rainsuit alone in warmer summer showers. The lightweight construction folds small enough to keep in a work bag or site van for when the forecast changes.

Yellow or Orange — Which Hi-Vis Rainsuit Do You Need?

Yellow hi-vis rainsuits are the standard for general construction sites, groundwork, farm and rural environments, and most UK outdoor workplaces where no specific colour is contractually required. Our RS103 and RS104 yellow/black styles and RS105 fluorescent yellow suit are the default choice for most site workers.

Orange hi-vis rainsuits are typically required for roadside worksites, traffic management, highways maintenance and rail-adjacent environments — orange provides stronger contrast against yellow road markings and improves visibility in traffic-heavy conditions. Our RS103 and RS104 orange/black styles meet the same waterproof construction standard as the yellow range. Always check your site-specific PPE requirements before ordering; highway and rail contracts frequently specify colour.

Pair with our hi-vis trousers for full lower-body coverage on wetter days, or wear over a hi-vis polo shirt as the base layer in milder wet weather. Not sure which high-visibility class your site requires? Read the EN ISO 20471 class guide. For washing and reproofing care, see the hi-vis clothing care guide. HSE PPE guidance confirms that high-visibility clothing is a mandatory requirement in environments with moving vehicles and plant.

How to Choose the Right Hi-Vis Rainsuit for Site Work

Why a Hi-Vis Rainsuit Is Not the Same as a Waterproof Jacket

A standard waterproof jacket keeps you dry. A hi-vis rainsuit keeps you dry and visible — meeting high-visibility requirements in the same garment. The difference matters on any UK site governed by the Personal Protective Equipment at Work Regulations 1992 or the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015.

Many waterproof jackets treat high-visibility as an afterthought — a narrow strip of tape on a dark shell that barely qualifies as compliant workwear. Our hi-vis rainsuits are built the other way around. The fluorescent fabric and retroreflective tape placement come first, with waterproofing integrated into the same garment. The result is a rainsuit that handles both requirements in one purchase.

The matched jacket and trouser set also matters. Buying a hi-vis jacket and waterproof trousers separately from different suppliers creates a potential compliance gap — the two garments may not combine to reach the fluorescent area required for the visibility class your site demands. A purpose-built rainsuit set is designed as a complete system.

Which Rainsuit for Which Environment

Construction & groundwork

Yellow/black RS103 or RS104. Visible against dark plant, machinery and earth. The standard choice for general UK construction site environments.

Roadside & highway maintenance

Orange/black RS103 or RS104. Orange is the specified colour for traffic-adjacent environments on most UK highway contracts — confirm your site PPE requirements before ordering.

Farm & rural work

RS105 fluorescent yellow. Maximum fluorescent area for open rural settings where vehicle and machinery proximity is the primary hazard in wet conditions.

Delivery & logistics

Yellow/black for yard and warehouse gate work. Lightweight enough to keep in a cab and pull on for outdoor deliveries without bulk between drops.

Waterproof rating and seam construction. Our rainsuits use sealed seam construction at the stress points — shoulders, cuffs and hem — to stop water tracking in during a full shift in driving rain. The waterproof PVC-coated polyester outer repels sustained rainfall rather than light showers. Reproof with a DWR spray after washing to maintain beading performance.

How to Layer Your Hi-Vis Kit for Cold, Wet Weather

A hi-vis rainsuit is the outer shell — it blocks water and wind but does not insulate. In UK autumn and winter conditions, you need a warm layer underneath. A hi-vis fleece hoodie worn under the rainsuit jacket gives you full-body warmth while keeping the high-visibility layer on the outside where it needs to be seen. This three-layer system — base layer, fleece mid-layer, hi-vis rainsuit outer — is what most UK site workers rely on from October through March.

For summer showers, the rainsuit alone is enough. The lightweight construction means you can work in it without overheating once the rain passes, and it packs down small enough to store in a locker, bag or site van without taking up space you need for tools and equipment.

Caring for Your Hi-Vis Rainsuit

The waterproof coating on PVC and polyester-faced fabrics degrades with incorrect washing — heat is the main cause of failure. Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle only. Do not tumble dry. After washing, apply a DWR (durable water repellent) reproof spray to restore the water-beading action. Avoid fabric conditioner — it coats the fibres and reduces water repellency. A properly cared-for rainsuit will keep performing through multiple UK winters. Full washing guidance in the hi-vis clothing care guide.

Hi-Vis Rainsuits — Frequently Asked Questions

What is a hi-vis rainsuit?

A hi-vis rainsuit is a two-piece waterproof workwear set — jacket and matching trousers — made from high-visibility fluorescent fabric with retroreflective tape. Unlike a standard waterproof jacket, it is designed to keep you both dry and clearly visible on site in poor weather and low-light conditions. The matched jacket and trouser set works as a complete system for consistent high-visibility coverage.

What is the difference between a hi-vis rainsuit and a standard waterproof jacket?

A standard waterproof jacket is designed to keep you dry. A hi-vis rainsuit is designed to keep you dry and visible — with fluorescent fabric and retroreflective tape integrated into the same waterproof garment. A matched rainsuit set also ensures the fluorescent area across jacket and trousers is designed as a complete system, which mismatched garments from different suppliers cannot guarantee.

What colours do your hi-vis rainsuits come in?

Our hi-vis rainsuits are available in yellow/black (RS103, RS104), orange/black (RS103, RS104) and fluorescent yellow (RS105). Yellow is standard for most UK construction and outdoor work environments. Orange is typically specified for roadside, traffic management and rail-adjacent sites. Check your site or contract PPE requirements before ordering if colour is specified.

What sizes are available?

Our hi-vis rainsuits are available in Small through 2XL. Check individual product pages for exact size availability on each style, as some variants may have limited stock in certain sizes.

Can I wear a hi-vis rainsuit over a fleece hoodie?

Yes — this is the standard layering approach for cold, wet UK site conditions. A hi-vis fleece hoodie worn as a mid-layer underneath the rainsuit jacket provides warmth while the rainsuit outer handles wind and waterproofing. The rainsuit cut accommodates a mid-layer underneath without restricting movement.

How do I care for my hi-vis rainsuit?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Do not tumble dry — heat degrades the waterproof membrane on PVC and coated polyester fabrics. After washing, apply a DWR (durable water repellent) reproof spray to restore the water-beading performance of the outer fabric. Avoid fabric conditioner, which coats fibres and reduces water repellency. Full care guidance in the hi-vis clothing care guide.

Are hi-vis rainsuits required PPE on UK construction sites?

High-visibility clothing is a PPE requirement on most UK construction, highways and outdoor work sites under the Personal Protective Equipment at Work Regulations 1992. Whether a full rainsuit is required — versus a hi-vis jacket alone — depends on site conditions and your employer's risk assessment. HSE PPE guidance sets out the legal framework for employers and workers.

Do your hi-vis rainsuits work for agricultural and farm use?

Yes. Hi-vis rainsuits are widely used in agricultural environments — particularly on farms where workers operate near machinery or vehicles in poor weather. The RS105 fluorescent yellow style provides maximum fluorescent area for open rural settings where visibility at distance is the primary safety concern.
