Hi Vis Gear


We like to think we’re a fairly safety conscious bunch but as a runner who enjoys his evening runs running in the dying light can have its dangers...

We found this video online to demonstrate just what we’re talking about:


Drivers in cars are probably your biggest threat when running and you should always assume that though you can see them, they can’t see you. So depending on the time of day you run and where your route takes you, some hi-vis gear could be a solid investment.

Here’s some bright looking gear we found online:

Brooks Nightlife Hat 

High Visibility Snap Bands
Running gloves
Nathan Lightspurs
Silva Headlamp 
(also good for trail runs at night)

Karrimor  Reflective Jacket
