Orange Class E Safety Pants
Then safety pants combine a breathable high-visibility orange polyester mesh upper with solid waterproof black lower panels. The Class E design uses 3M™ reflective material, contrasting yellow-green trim, and reflective piping to add supplemental lower-body visibility for roadwork, traffic control, utilities, transportation, and other work near moving vehicles or equipment.
An elastic waist, adjustable sides, snap closure, and hook-and-loop fly support over-clothing fit. Zippered elastic cuffs provide additional opening for work boots. The black lower panels help keep the lower legs dry and conceal dirt, while a right cargo pocket and side access openings keep frequently used items or underlayer pockets within reach.

Fit and Layering
Global Glove documents GLO-99P in grouped sizes: S/M, L/XL, 2XL/3XL, and 4XL/5XL. Verify that the selected ASA option corresponds to the manufacturer label before ordering. Allow enough room for the work clothing worn underneath without creating excess loose material near equipment.
When to Choose a Different Garment
Choose fully waterproof rain pants when the complete lower-body garment must protect against sustained precipitation or wet operations. Select insulated, flame-resistant, arc-rated, chemical-protective, or cut-protective apparel when the hazard assessment requires those properties; those ratings are not documented for GLO-99P.
Global Glove GLO-99P Safety Pants FAQ
Are the GLO-99P safety pants waterproof?
Only the solid black lower panels are identified as waterproof. The high-visibility orange upper portion is breathable polyester mesh, so the complete garment should not be treated as fully waterproof rain pants.
What does ANSI Class E mean for these safety pants?
Class E is a supplemental lower-body high-visibility designation. These pants are not a standalone Class 2 or Class 3 garment; confirm the appropriate labeled upper-body garment and complete ensemble for the worksite.
Can the pants be put on over work boots?
The elastic lower cuffs include zippers that widen the leg opening and make the pants easier to put on or remove around many work boots.
What pockets are included?
The pants include a right cargo pocket with reflective piping plus side access openings for reaching clothing pockets underneath.
How is the waist adjusted?
GLO-99P uses adjustable sides, an elastic back, a snap waist closure, and a hook-and-loop fly.
Are these pants flame resistant or arc rated?
No flame-resistant or arc-rating claim is documented for GLO-99P. Select apparel with the specific verified protective rating required by the hazard assessment.
