Although I can't order any (I'm in Australia - land of floods and fires) no one has mentioned this style vest. (This is not an advertisment by the way.)LeighW

probably because that is a genuine safety vest - whereas this thread isn't really about safety... just getting something else with the disco3 brand name on it Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

It also would not be accepted by the Police in Europe as it is not to EN471.

Having spoke to Martin a while back, it was something he wasn't going to back for the time being. I get the impression that it could happen, and am willing to arrange myself, but as Martin did point out, and rightly so, that although we do have enough numbers on this thread, most won't take it up. This leaving stock he cannot shift just on promises.
Like I said, if I get permission for the forum chief, then I could take it on my shoulders, with a donation to site for every vest sold.

I'm afraid that due to issues with previous use of the DISCO3.CO.UK logo I cannot currently allow 3rd parties to create items with the logo on.
I am looking into hi-vis vests, but costs are prohibitive at the moment - the cost roughly trebles to have logos printed on the relatively small number of vests that interest was expressed for.

would an external disco3.co.uk window sticker 'stuck' onto a hi vis vest be OK? Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

I have found a supplier for these who isn't going to charge me an arm and a leg for a relatively small quantity, and allows mix-and-match of sizes.
There will be a DISCO3.CO.UK logo on the back, I'm not sure what the problem is with having to have a qualifier of a vehicle image or additional text, presumably you'll be stood near-ish a great big Discovery 3 when you're wearing it
I will see whether I can come up with a one-colour design which is simple to print and consistent with current DISCO3.CO.UK branding.
