TECHNOLOGICAL ENGINEERING

Designed to embody only the essentials, this anatomically-cut vest does away with anything not 100% needed. Cut slightly wider at the bottom when compared to the original emergencyVest, we have continued to refine the performance of this item. Coming in a new colour with a new water-repellent treatment, this FF_1emergencyWindvest_evo7 has a far lighter feel. Channelling the MERCEDES AMG PETRONAS design, we have used our new reflective material with a matt finish.

THE CONSTRUCTION

• Created to be the absolute essential, this vest is super lightweight and highly packable.
• Large reflective strips for increased visibility use our new matt finish material, which is tuned towards reflecting lights rather than the sun.
• New shoulder design to reduce bulk and improve aerodynamics even further.
• Wider cut at the bottom to improve fit.
• New FF_1 grey colour way and our new water-repellent treatment make this vest feel even lighter.
