Frequently Asked Questions

Is the ML Kishigo 1194 orange mesh vest a good choice for a low-cost, breathable Class 2 hi-vis vest?

Yes. The ML Kishigo 1194 is an economy-tier, all-mesh high-visibility vest built for hot-weather work at a low price point. It's 100% polyester mesh front and back, so air flows through and heat escapes, and it meets ANSI/ISEA 107 Type R, Class 2 in orange with 2" wide reflective material and a hook & loop (Velcro-style) front. For road crews, flaggers, and outdoor trades who need compliant, breathable visibility without paying for premium features, the single-pocket 1194 is a strong value pick.

What safety standard does the ML Kishigo 1194 vest meet?

The ML Kishigo 1194 meets ANSI/ISEA 107-2015 and ANSI/ISEA 107-2020, Type R, Class 2. Type R means it's designed for roadway/traffic environments, and Class 2 specifies the minimum amount of background and reflective material for workers exposed to traffic or moving equipment. It's an orange vest with 2" wide reflective striping.

What does ANSI Class 2 mean, and is the ML Kishigo 1194 enough for road construction and DOT work?

Class 2 is the middle high-visibility tier under ANSI/ISEA 107: it requires more background and reflective material than Class 1 and is intended for workers in higher-risk settings — roadways with traffic over 25 mph, complex backgrounds, or reduced sightlines. The ML Kishigo 1194 is a Type R, Class 2 vest, the level commonly specified for road construction, flagging, survey, and utility crews. For the highest-risk conditions (e.g., low light on high-speed highways) some agencies require Class 3; confirm your site or DOT spec.

What is a hook and loop closure on the ML Kishigo 1194 vest, and why choose it over a zipper?

The ML Kishigo 1194 uses a 4" hook & loop (Velcro-style) front closure instead of a zipper. Hook & loop lets you put the vest on and take it off fast, one-handed and with gloves on, and it won't jam or break the way a zipper tooth can. It's also easy to adjust over bulky layers. The trade-off is that it holds less snugly than a zipper in high wind; if you prefer a zipper, the zipper-front version of this economy mesh vest is the Kishigo 1519 (lime) / 1520 (orange).

What pockets and features does the ML Kishigo 1194 vest have?

The ML Kishigo 1194 has a single left chest pocket plus a left chest mic tab for a two-way radio. Its closure is a 4" hook & loop front, the fabric is 100% polyester mesh front and back for breathability, and the reflective striping is 2" wide. It's an economy Class 2 vest, so it keeps the feature set simple and focused on compliant visibility and airflow.

What sizes does the ML Kishigo 1194 orange vest come in?

The ML Kishigo 1194 is available in combined size ranges S-M, L-XL, 2X-3X, and 4X-5X, fitting chest sizes from about 36" up to 62". It's an orange Class 2 mesh vest with a 4" hook & loop front closure and a left chest pocket.

How do you wash and care for the ML Kishigo 1194 mesh vest?

Machine wash cold, no bleach, tumble dry low, do not dry clean, and do not iron. The ML Kishigo 1194 is rated by the manufacturer for 25 wash cycles, after which the high-visibility and reflective performance should be re-checked against ANSI/ISEA 107 before continued use. As an economy vest, its rated wash life is shorter than higher-tier Kishigo mesh vests, so it's well suited to high-turnover or short-term crews.

Can I get the ML Kishigo 1194 vest with a company logo?

Yes. The ML Kishigo 1194 is available with optional custom imprinting (company logo) through Industrial Safety Products, which requires a minimum order of 24 garments; orders under that minimum ship as plain "non-logo" vests.

Should I choose orange or lime for the ML Kishigo Class 2 single-pocket hook & loop mesh vest?

Both colors carry the same ANSI/ISEA 107 Type R, Class 2 rating, so visibility compliance is identical — the choice is about contrast against your work background. The 1194 is the orange version; the lime (fluorescent yellow-green) version of the same hook & loop economy vest is the 1193. Orange tends to contrast better against green foliage and vegetation, while lime stands out more against dirt, asphalt, and low-light backgrounds. Pick the color that contrasts most with your environment, or match your company/DOT spec.

Where can I buy the ML Kishigo 1194 Class 2 orange mesh vest?

The ML Kishigo 1194 Class 2 Orange Single Pocket Hook and Loop Mesh Vest is available from Industrial Safety Products (industrialsafetyproducts.com). It's sold in size ranges S-M through 4X-5X and can be ordered with optional custom logo imprinting on orders of 24 or more garments.
