I happened across this company - http://www.safetysupplyinc.com/ and since I live in their hometown I drove to their storefront and bought a vest. Unfortunately the one I bought isn't on their website for some reason, but it was product number 473039.



The mesh vest made by Lakeland, is ANSI 3 compliant and has more than enough reflective material. When I measured it, I figured out it has 144 inches front and back on the body of the vest and the sleeves have an additional 44 square inches front and back. Therefore, I can cut the sleeves off and be compliant and comfortable.



It is unbelievably bright ORANGE!!! with yellow green reflective tape. The only person who wouldn't see me shouldn't be driving.



It has zipper closure, not velcro and the best part was the price - $12.88!



Downside, the tape is a bit heavy as it is plastic covered, and there is only one pocket.



But I'll be styling out there on the catwalk....I mean roadcut.



If you are headed to snakedays and don't have anything yet, the place is just off I-35 on the north side of San Antonio.
