Bisley BS6696T – Taped Hi Vis Cool Lightweight Shirt

If you’re after a work shirt that can handle the tough Aussie conditions while keeping you cool, safe, and comfortable all day long, the Bisley BS6696T Taped Hi Vis Cool Lightweight Shirt ticks every box. Designed for tradies, miners, and anyone working in hot, high-vis environments, this shirt is all about smart design and tough performance.

Built for Aussie Worksites

Made by Bisley, one of Australia’s most trusted names in workwear, the BS6696T is built to last while keeping you feeling fresh on even the hottest days. The shirt features a traditional fit, offering plenty of room to move without feeling baggy. Whether you’re on the tools, climbing scaffolding, or operating heavy machinery, you’ll have full range of motion to get the job done comfortably.

Cool, Breathable Comfort

Let’s face it – Aussie summers can be brutal. That’s why this shirt has been designed with vertical cotton mesh ventilation in the back and underarm cotton mesh panels, allowing maximum airflow where you need it most. The mesh is made from 100% cotton open weave (125gsm), which lets heat escape and fresh air circulate to keep you cooler throughout the day. The main fabric is a lightweight 100% preshrunk cotton drill (155gsm) – strong enough to handle a hard day’s work, but still breathable and comfortable next to your skin.

Hi Vis Safety, Day and Night

When you’re working around moving vehicles, machinery, or on-site at night, visibility is crucial. The BS6696T features a reflective taped hoop pattern that meets Australian standards for high visibility. The tape wraps around the body and arms, making sure you’re easily seen from all angles in low-light or high-risk conditions. Combined with the bold hi vis colours, you’ll be noticed whether you’re on a construction site, in a warehouse, or working roadside.

Practical Features You’ll Actually Use

Bisley knows tradies, and this shirt is full of little details that make a big difference. You’ve got two chest pockets with button-down flaps for keeping small essentials like notes, tags, or a phone secure. The left pocket includes a pen division, so you’ve always got your pen handy for signing off paperwork or jotting down measurements.

The two-piece contrast-coloured structured collar gives the shirt a clean, sharp look while keeping its shape throughout the day. There’s also a two-button adjustable cuff, letting you roll up your sleeves when it’s hot or tighten them down for protection when needed.

Plenty of Colour Options

No matter your company’s uniform colours or your personal preference, the BS6696T has a combination to suit. It’s available in a range of striking hi vis colourways including:

Blue/Navy
Lime/Charcoal
Orange/Navy
Orange/Pink
Yellow/Charcoal
Yellow/Khaki
Yellow/Navy
Yellow/Pink
Yellow/Royal

Each style uses a contrast panel for a professional, modern look that stands out while keeping to safety requirements.
