Global Glove FrogWear GLO-079 Safety Vest FAQ
How many pockets does the 079 vest have?
Six total pockets: four outside pockets and two inside pockets.
Does the vest have a tablet pocket?
Yes. One inside pocket is designed for a compatible tablet or map and uses a hook-and-loop closure. Measure the device with its case and compare it with verified pocket dimensions before ordering.
Will every iPad fit in the tablet pocket?
No universal fit should be assumed. Tablet generations, screen sizes, and protective cases vary, so fit depends on the device's complete outside dimensions and the verified pocket measurements.
What visibility rating does the 079 have?
The manufacturer identifies GLO-079 as ANSI Class 2. Confirm the current ANSI/ISEA standard edition and required garment type against the product label or current manufacturer documentation before specifying it for a safety program.
Is the vest breathable?
The body is made from high-visibility mesh polyester to support airflow, but comfort still depends on activity, weather, layering, garment fit, and the complete PPE ensemble.
Does the vest have radio attachment points?
Yes. It includes mic tabs on the shoulders for compatible radio microphones or similar communication accessories.
What is the rear opening for?
The rear D-ring pass-through allows a compatible harness D-ring to remain accessible. The vest is not fall-protection equipment and does not replace a properly selected, fitted, and inspected harness system.

This vest is pretty cool. I can put papers or my iPad when I'm in the work site. Solid construction and nice size reflective contrasting lines.
