But if a vest alone is enough for high-vis, then maybe I'll go that route after all and just wear whatever I want under it. Maybe put some reflective tape on my backpack too?
I use lights and reflective material to make me more visible, and us a small backpack with retroreflective trim on it when it's warm. I don't notice a big difference between the high viz vest and an highviz long sleeved jacket when I wear it, both make me more visible than riding without either one.
