Et voliá… as promised, we now have them in stock just for you: our work wear collection is now ready for personalisation. Let’s play it safe and start off with the safety vest in neon-orange and neon-yellow. The vest comes equipped with reflective stripes on the front and back. The vest is super-multi-functional: perfect for construction workers (or those that want to look like one); you can store it in your car for safety reasons; use it for your jog at night; or wear it at party (for some extra attention). Eye-catching safety at your disposal! Put our reflective or neon color flex on it and you will love it even more. It comes in one size which means it is big enough to wear over a hoodie or jacket.

We are all licking our lips with anticipation of the two main sports events this year. In June, the 14th European Football Championships will be held in Poland and Ukraine, and the Olympic games will be hosted in London. But before you start creating new designs to honour the events, we would like to (again) direct your attention to the legal side of things. It is a bit tricky, so please ensure that your shop does not violate any copyrights.
