Minnesota OSHA requires<\/a> employers to give anyone working near moving traffic a high-visibility garment rated ANSI\/ISEA 107 Performance Class 2 or higher<\/strong>, and to replace it as soon as it’s faded, torn or dirty enough to lose performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That matters most in winter for three reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The easy fix:<\/strong> choose a winter jacket that is itself ANSI-rated, so the warm layer and the compliant layer are the same garment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Class 3 is the highest visibility rating. It requires sleeves and more fluorescent and reflective material, and it’s the right pick for highway crews, flaggers and anyone working near traffic over 50 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our most versatile winter jacket. It’s Class 3, with a polyurethane-coated 300D Oxford shell over a zip-out 250 g\/m\u00b2 fleece liner. Wear them together in deep cold, the shell alone in sleet, or the liner alone around the shop. It also has a concealed hood, shoulder mic tabs and a D-ring opening for fall-protection harnesses. Sizes M to 5XL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A Class 3 quilted jacket with 160 g\/m\u00b2 insulation and a wind- and water-resistant shell. Ribbed cuffs and collar keep the cold out, and the black lower front hides dirt. It’s a dependable everyday jacket for plow drivers and utility crews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For workers who move a lot and overheat in a parka. It’s a Class 3 sweatshirt with 300 g\/m\u00b2 fleece, a detachable quick-release hood and segmented reflective tape that breathes. Sizes S to 5XL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Also in stock: the Winter Parka (GLO-P1)<\/a>, the Eight-in-One Winter Bomber (GLO-B2)<\/a>, and the Fleece-Lined Softshell (GLO-SJ1)<\/a>. See all hi-vis jackets<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Legs get cold and wet first, especially for anyone shoveling, kneeling or climbing in and out of equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These bibs are rated ANSI Class E<\/strong>, with quilted 185 g\/m\u00b2 insulation and fully taped, waterproof and windproof seams. Black ripstop below the knee stands up to snow, salt and scraping. Long side-leg zippers let workers pull them on over boots. Sizes S-M through 4XL-5XL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pro tip:<\/strong> Class E bibs paired with a Class 2 or Class 3 jacket count as a Class 3 ensemble<\/strong> under ANSI\/ISEA 107. That’s the most visible combination you can put on a worker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Need a lower-visibility option for yard or warehouse work? The Enhanced-Visibility Bibs (EV-700)<\/a> offer the same warmth with a more subdued look.<\/p>\n\n\n You lose a lot of heat through your head, and a stocking cap doesn’t fit under a hard hat. Our Bullhead Safety™ winter liners are designed to go under the shell without changing the hat’s fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Shop all winter liners<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The gap between the collar and the hard hat is where wind gets in. A gaiter closes it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here’s a simple head-to-toe setup for a typical plow or road crew member:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Outfitting 10 or more people? We’ll quote the whole kit, in mixed sizes, in one order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Anyone working on or near roadways needs at least Class 2. For high-speed roads, nighttime work or bad weather, Class 3 is the safer choice, and it’s what we recommend for plow crews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes, as long as the vest is the outermost layer and fits over the coat without hiding its reflective tape. Many crews find an ANSI-rated winter jacket simpler, since there’s nothing to forget or lose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Replace it whenever it’s faded, torn or too dirty to clean. Road salt and slush wear gear out faster than summer conditions, so many crews replace their winter hi-vis gear at least once mid-season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes. We supply contractors, public works departments, utilities and property managers across the Upper Midwest, with volume pricing on larger orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Champion Safety has served the Midwest for more than 25 years, and our winter hi-vis gear is in stock at our Minneapolis-area warehouse now. Standard orders ship the next business day, and same-day shipping and will-call pickup are available.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat the rules require in winter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
