Any runner's or biking store will have an assortment of reflective
clothing, but I don't understand where you're coming from. *Why would
a roofer need reflective clothing? *He's not going to get hit by a

Instead of wearing reflective clothing all of the time (some people
don't want to light up like a Christmas tree), get one of the
reflective runner's sashes. *Takes up no space, doesn't have to be
washed every day and they're cheap.


The reason a Roofer would want a reflective t shirt is to reflect as
much sun off of him as possible thereby making him cooler ; *not to
make him noticed .


I wasn't sure. There've been a few roofers over the years that I
wouldn't mind shooting!

As far as the shirts, the stuff about runner's and bikers still
applies. Coolmax fabric does a great job of wicking away sweat so you
feel drier than in a cotton shirt.
