Supervisor Storage and Visibility for Active Jobsites
The S088 foreman safety vest gives supervisors, inspectors, and crew leads high-visibility coverage with organized storage for documents, communication gear, and small jobsite essentials. ASA lists the yellow-green vest as ANSI/ISEA 107-2020 Type R Class 2 with 3M reflective material.
A solid polyester front supports the pocket layout, while a mesh back and padded neoprene neck help reduce bulk during active work. The vest closes with a front zipper and includes mic tabs, tether grommets, a rear D-ring opening, and a rear elastic holder for a bottle or spray-paint can.

S088 Foreman Safety Vest FAQ
What visibility classification is listed for the S088 vest?
ASA lists the ComfortSafe S088 as ANSI/ISEA 107-2020 Type R Class 2. Confirm the current sewn-in garment label before assigning the vest to a worker or application.
How many pockets does this foreman vest have?
It has eight pockets: seven exterior pockets and one interior pocket. The exterior layout includes three large pockets for a tablet, map, or documents, chest storage, pen slots, and two lower flap pockets.
Does the vest use 3M reflective material?
The current ASA listing identifies 3M reflective material. Confirm the current supplier record and garment label when a specific reflective-material manufacturer is required by the purchasing specification.
Is the D-ring opening a fall-protection device?
No. The rear opening provides access to compatible equipment worn under the vest. The safety vest is not a harness, connector, anchor, or substitute for a complete fall-protection system.
Is this vest flame resistant or arc rated?
The current ASA listing does not identify an FR or arc rating. Do not use the vest as flame-resistant or arc-rated PPE unless the sewn label and supporting product documentation specifically provide the required rating.
How should I choose a size?
Choose the size that fits over normal work layers without excessive loose material or interference with other PPE. Select a size on the product page and confirm the garment's sewn size label when the order arrives.
How does the S088 differ from the S096 13-pocket vest?
The S088 provides an eight-pocket supervisor layout. The S096 13-pocket vest is the better ASA option when the buyer needs additional storage and a surveyor-style configuration.
