Portwest EV4 Hi-Vis Expedition Trouser
The Portwest EV4 Hi-Vis Expedition Trouser delivers outstanding visibility, comfort, and durability for professionals working in demanding outdoor environments. Engineered with an enhanced ergonomic design, this Class 1 hi-vis trouser combines advanced stretch technology with intelligent ventilation to keep you comfortable throughout the working day.
Constructed from Titanmill Pro Ripstop Stretch fabric (92% polyester, 8% elastane ripstop laminated to 100% polyester micro fleece), these trousers offer exceptional 4-way stretch for unrestricted movement. The targeted laser-cut ventilation panels provide maximum airflow exactly where you need it most, helping to regulate body temperature during physical work.
The high-rise back waistband with side elastication ensures complete coverage and protection in all working positions, whether you're bending, kneeling, or reaching. Pre-bent, top-loading adjustable knee pad pockets accommodate your preferred knee protection, while the stretch crotch gusset delivers maximum flexibility and reduces stress on seams during active movement.
With 17 generously sized pockets including a dedicated rule pocket, multi-functional zip thigh pockets, and secure front pockets, you'll have ample storage for your phone, pens, tools, and essential equipment. The FlexiHem™ hem adjuster secures the trouser firmly at the ankle to reduce entrapment hazards, while the inner boot clip prevents the trousers from riding up.
Enhanced visibility comes from lightweight, flexible HiVisTex Pro segmented reflective tape, providing 360-degree conspicuity in low-light conditions. Triple stitching throughout guarantees maximum durability, making these trousers a long-lasting investment for construction, utilities, roadworks, and rail applications.
