Glad to say that I am getting out and about a lot on new neddy and some of the time we are on the road.

Obviously I have hi-viz (a coat for the winter and a padded waistcoat). Because of the warmer weather, I have resorted to wearing a tabard type thing but the problem is it doesn't have a pocket for my phone (nor do the jods I wear).

Does anyone have (or have seen) a lightweight waistcoat or tabard type hi-viz that has a little pocket in for the phone.
Due to all the surgeries I have had in the last 12 months, OH and parents won't let me out on horse without strict checking in procedures. I have to add that I am 40 years old

Thanks
 
I've got a high viz polo shirt from B&Q, its great in the hot weather.

Doesn't have a pocket, but I do have one of those phone holders which velcros around your arm\leg (and not on the saddle as a caught my dippy mother doing!).
 
I have a lightweight multi-pocket sleeveless jacket which I got from one of the industrial construction supply companies so can carry mobile phone, hoof pick, bandage etc. in it.
 
I use a leg mobile phone holder, it's red and black but they come in other colours, fits at the top of my half chaps when riding.

I have this http://www.shiresequestrian.co.uk/shop/product.php?productid=121&cat=620&page=1 and I love it, I don't get over hot in it and it has pockets on both sides.

Only trouble is - it doesn't seem to be hi-viz. I want to be seen from as far away as possible so want bright, fluorescent yellow or similar, not just a bit of reflective piping.
I wear a lightweight fleece from Robinson's with pockets and long sleeves, unfortunately the zip has just gone and I can't find another like it, I'll just have to get on with putting in a new zip! But if you can find one I can recommend it!
