Is the ML Kishigo 9111 a good choice for a Class 2 high-visibility work T-shirt?
Yes. The ML Kishigo 9111 is an ANSI/ISEA 107 Type R, Class 2 high-visibility short sleeve T-shirt in fluorescent orange — a good fit for workers who need Class 2 conspicuity but want the comfort of a breathable tee instead of a vest layered over a shirt. It's built for roadway, construction, warehouse, parking, and general work-zone use where Class 2 is required. Made of moisture-wicking microfiber polyester with 2" wide reflective tape and a left chest pocket, it's an all-in-one compliant garment for warm-weather, all-day wear.
What safety standard does the ML Kishigo 9111 short sleeve T-shirt meet?
The ML Kishigo 9111 meets ANSI/ISEA 107 Type R, Class 2, compliant with both the 2015 and 2020 editions. "Type R" means it is rated for roadway and temporary traffic-control environments, and "Class 2" is the mid visibility level, requiring more fluorescent background material and retroreflective tape than Class 1. The 9111 achieves this with a fluorescent orange body and 2" wide high-performance reflective material.
What does "Class 2" mean on the Kishigo 9111 hi-vis shirt?
Class 2 is the middle conspicuity level under ANSI/ISEA 107, requiring more fluorescent background fabric and retroreflective tape than Class 1. It is intended for workers who need greater visibility than Class 1 provides — such as roadway construction, utility, survey, airport ground crew, and parking or warehouse work near moving traffic or equipment. The ML Kishigo 9111 meets Class 2 with a fluorescent orange body and 2" wide reflective tape wrapping the torso.
What is the ML Kishigo 9111 shirt made of, and does it keep you cool?
The ML Kishigo 9111 is made of microfiber polyester that wicks away moisture to help keep you dry and cool during hot-weather, all-day wear. It's a solid-knit short sleeve T-shirt with a fluorescent orange body and 2" wide high-performance reflective material. The moisture-wicking fabric makes it comfortable for active work while still meeting ANSI/ISEA 107 Class 2 visibility.
What sizes does the ML Kishigo 9111 short sleeve T-shirt come in?
The ML Kishigo 9111 comes in a full size range from S through 5X (S, M, L, XL, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X), so it fits most workers. It's a Class 2 hi-vis short sleeve T-shirt in fluorescent orange with a left chest pocket, and each size is packaged individually.
Is the ML Kishigo 9111 shirt machine washable and durable?
Yes. The ML Kishigo 9111 is machine washable — wash cold, no bleach, tumble dry low, do not dry clean, and do not iron. Kishigo rates it for 50 wash cycles while maintaining its ANSI/ISEA 107 Class 2 compliance. The microfiber polyester is quick-drying and built to hold up to regular job-site laundering.
Can I get the ML Kishigo 9111 shirt customized with a company logo?
Yes. Optional custom imprinting is available on the ML Kishigo 9111 through Industrial Safety Products, with a minimum order of 24 garments. If an order doesn't meet the 24-piece minimum, it ships as standard "non-logo" shirts. It's a good fit for crews that want branded, ANSI/ISEA 107 Class 2 hi-vis apparel.
ML Kishigo 9111 hi-vis T-shirt vs a hi-vis vest — which should I choose?
Both can meet Class 2, but they serve different needs. The ML Kishigo 9111 is a Class 2 short sleeve T-shirt — the hi-vis material is the garment itself, with moisture-wicking microfiber polyester that keeps you cool in hot weather, so there's no need to layer a vest over a plain shirt. A hi-vis vest goes over your own clothing and is quicker to take on and off. Choose the 9111 when you want an all-in-one Class 2 garment for warm-weather, full-shift wear; choose a vest when you need to layer over changing clothing or share gear across a crew.
What's the difference between the ML Kishigo 9111 and 9110?
They are the same short sleeve Class 2 T-shirt in different colors. The ML Kishigo 9111 is fluorescent orange and the 9110 is fluorescent lime. Both are ANSI/ISEA 107 Type R, Class 2, made of moisture-wicking microfiber polyester with 2" wide high-performance reflective material and a left chest pocket, and both come in sizes S through 5X. Choose the color that fits your crew's uniform or contrasts best with your work environment.
