Thread 2936363

Has this been discussed here before? What color is better?

shieeeeeet

The human eye in most sensitive to green wavelengths of light, so in most conditions the green/yellow is going to be better. It's also more contrasty against most of the built environment – mostly warm greys to browns.

If you're going to be against a mostly forested or otherwise chlorophyll'd green backdrop though, orange is better because of the contrast.

i do custom residential so neither

>>2936363 (OP)
white obviously, why even ask

>>2936363 (OP)
Orange, it's used on prisoner suits for a reason

Local town did the fire engines in a hi-vis green back in the late 90s for a bit. not sure if its still that color

I also do that but I'd rather wear a work shirt that doesn't matter than wear out my nicer shirts that I can wear when I go places.

For workplace, a mix of both. To prevent losing tools or as hunting hi-vis an-anti camo in a forest full of maple trees in the fall? Ford Blue.

I don't even wear boots let alone putting on a "please bother me ice" vest.

Bro your lucky I put shoes on before I bother coming in.

Depends on your skin tone, Green for cool skin tones, Orange for warm skin tones

Whenever I wear the yellow, I look like a homeless person who hasn’t showered in 3 weeks by 10am. If I wear the orange, I can make it to lunch most days without looking like a wreck.

Genuinely this color.

Yellow for general visibility, orange if you want to be invisible to deer.

Not always the case but orange often indicates foreman or management while yellow is the workers

I don't think

it matters
