Hi my horse is very sharp on her own so Im planning to use my air jacket for hacking solo but they say not to put anything over the top and I like to wear hi vis - what do people do to be seen?
I bought a High Viz Air Waistcoat of a well known brand to go over my Point Two air jacket. I was told it was an Air Waistcoat made for air jackets by the seller. When I went to buy a replacement a few years later I mentioned that the zip was a bit poor design with regards to the lanyard (it has come undone halfway up the zip due to the movement of the lanyard). I was then told by the maker it wasn't an air waistcoat made for air jackets, it was only the name of it. A bit misleading.I've got a high vis air jacket
Sounds to me like some manufacturers need to start producing decent air jackets which are also hi-viz for just this scenario!!
I have a point 2 and wear a big hi vis over the top. I don't do the velcro up. Managed to forget to unplug myself a few months ago and it inflated with no problems. Much to the amusement of all around!
Thanks all! Can anyone recommend a Velcro hi vis with phone pocket as they all seem to have the zip rather than Velcro. I currently use an equisafety with zip which I love but theres no way it would give enough if I put over my air jacket if the worst happened. Would be nice to not have to think about an extra holder for the phone!
I wear a cheap hi vis (ikea I think) over my air jacket (hit air). Its pretty baggy but the force of the inflation would undo the velcro at the front easily so never really worried about it!
