I have to be honest, my clothing is always advertising my company but my vote would be for the low key clothing.
 
Low key for me. I'm not aloud to wear hi vis around the carp lake!
 
I think it's only me and disgruntled customers on the forum that don't think the sun shines etc. But I know a few lads up here that feel the same.

Your in a very small minority there then mate
Grant best by far fitted a new Worcester other day not impressed
 
Some sort of outdoorsy snow jacket thing. Like north face or berghous. Something you could wear to work but it's to nice.
 
Cant stand hi viz..........bloody health and safety........hard hats in the middle of a field, what the hell is that all about?......ahem...sorry about that......low key me thinks Ray.
 
Like the viessman soft shell jacket our rep dropped off last week
 
Yeah hi vis jackets are for attention seekers, the same sort who drive around with no top on on in march because the suns just about out even though their nipples are so erect it obscures the view through the windscreen.

Definitely go for the casual but smart, soft shell is good. So many freebies you get are crap and don't last 2 minutes or the fit is horrible because they are made in Taiwan for 50p by the 4' 4" brigade, the waist band gets stuck under your rib cage.
 
Weatherproof coat with a fleece liner works well. I've got a nice one that Worsester were giving away a few years ago. Both fleece and outer are logoed up so they can be worn separately.

It's always nice if the logo is on a patch so you can unpick the stitching and get a freebie with no advertising.

We have a few of those Worcester ones. Nice that you can have both but the quality was poor with rubbish zips. This applies to any "freebie" make sure it is a good one. The quality of the giveaway reflects the product. I am amazed that Worcester with their reputation hawked such tat.

Why change the habit of a lifetime?
 
This is getting to be a bit of a rout. 10:2 in favour of low-vis. :)
 
if you would like to send me samples of your designs on suitable jackets I will get my customers opinions for you and review them for comfort myself. size large/XL post xmas :)

What a generous chap you are Jonathan. :)
 
always willing to help a good cause, got my bottles of wine from grateful dentist today having chased after skum who burgled his surgery :)
 
So none of you been hit by a car then while loading side door of your van ? As soon as it's dusk, all of our chaps are expected to don a hi viz. rather look a tool and get to see my kids than look cool in a black at local a&e
 
Most mfrs do dark soft shell. High viz is Ppe so best not rely on a free bee!

I quite fancied [DLMURL="http://www.orvis.co.uk/store/product.aspx?pf_id=97R2"]this[/DLMURL]

trouble is - the entire promo budget disappears on one jacket. That I'm wearing.

I particularly like this

"Professionally clean"

Like you are going to spend two-and-a-half grand on a coat, and then chuck it in the washing machine!

"Yeah, it'll be fine love. Trust me..."

I see that Croppie has voted on this poll. Sorry John, I thought I had made my position clear in our recent exchange of PMs.

Yes, you can have a jacket.

No, it will not be hi-vis.

Yes it will be pink.

No, I have not yet decided whether it will be powder-pink or bubble-gum pink

Yes, they do a size called FC.

No, I don't know what that means. Although I believe that Leo is the same size. :)

Tee hee.
 
ooh I'll test drive the hi viz and fluffy bunny look ones as well Ray if thats your budget :)
