The young French start-up “Urban Circus” proved this fashion guru to the contrary by created a collection that no longer has anything in common with the original yellow safety vest, except the safety standards that they met.

 

The yellow reflective vest is now neither ugly nor yellow, but represents a collection piece, which comes directly from the street and was inspired and now shines with a stylish look and a brilliant cut while she complies with safety standards EN1150 and ISO 20,471th Road safety is now colorful and fun.

Safety first principle

We pay special attention to the road safety and the environment, which is why we work with the following partners: the insurance MAIF, the French road safety and the Paris City Hall.

 

Thanks to its visibility from a distance of about 250 meters instead of 30 meters, the jacket could a driver give an additional reaction time of 2 seconds and thus avoid a possible accident.

 

70% of road accidents occur due to lack of visibility, and especially in this time of year, visibility is an important issue. Our goal is to expand the possibilities for using the yellow reflective jacket and to reduce these risks.

 

The new collection, which can be pre-ordered on Kick starter, is an excellent demonstration of the “savoir-faire” of French young start-ups. The world is just beginning to discover Urban Circus, but the best is yet.
