Proviz Review: Grey By Day, a Beacon After Dark

Proviz's whole reason for existing is one genuinely clever idea: fabric that reads as ordinary grey in daylight, then reflects a car's headlights back as a full-body beacon the moment it matters. Riding home after dark is the one time visibility actually saves you, and Proviz built a whole range around it.
City — the jacket that made them famous

Formerly the REFLECT360, renamed City — the full-reflective jacket, waterproof and vented, cut for commuting rather than racing. Men's and women's. Men's City · Women's City · Shop →
NightRider — the everyday all-rounder

Less full-beacon than the City, more everyday commuter jacket — waterproof, breathable, with reflective detailing rather than a fully reflective surface, at a friendlier price. Comes in six colours, including hi-vis yellow for daytime visibility too. See the range · Shop →

The backpack and the gloves

A 30-litre backpack that reflects across its entire surface — which matters, because your back is exactly what drivers see — plus waterproof gloves with the same reflective treatment. Small additions, same idea. Backpack · Gloves
The verdict
City if you want the full beacon effect; NightRider if you want something closer to a normal jacket with a strong visibility boost.
