Spanish Police HiViz Traffic Operations Polo

Guardia Civil Traffic Polo

This long-sleeve high-visibility polo comes from the traffic division of Spain's Guardia Civil, the national force that patrols the country's roads and highways. Its job is simple: make the officer easy to see from a moving vehicle, day or night. Collectors of European police uniforms will want it for its authenticity, and it also works for anyone who spends time on foot near traffic.

Features

• Fluorescent Yellow Body — The front and back panels are cut in hi-vis yellow, a color chosen because it stands out against road, sky and greenery.
• Retroreflective Tape — Silver-grey bands, which bounce headlight glare straight back toward the driver, run across the chest and back and over both shoulders.
• Banded Sleeves — Each sleeve carries two reflective bands, so the arms stay visible when the wearer is signaling traffic.
• Reflective Back Lettering — GUARDIA CIVIL TRAFICO is printed across the upper back in the same reflective finish as the tape.
• Contrast Collar And Sleeves — The collar, sleeves and cuffs are dark grey-green, which matches the rest of the Guardia Civil traffic uniform.
• Two-Button Placket — A short buttoned opening at the neck and a classic polo collar let you wear it open or closed.
• Ribbed Knit Cuffs — Snug cuffs hold the sleeves at the wrist and keep them from riding down over the hands.
• Insignia And Flag — An emblem patch sits on the chest and a Spanish flag is sewn to the left sleeve.
• Chest Ring — A small metal ring on the upper chest gives you a fixed point for clipping a lanyard or microphone.

Original Guardia Civil Kit

This is issued Spanish traffic police clothing, made to the force's own pattern with its markings in place. The fabric is a cotton, polyester and nylon blend, and the knit is a polo weight rather than a heavy jacket shell, so it can be worn on its own or layered under outerwear. Because it carries the Guardia Civil's real insignia and back print, it holds collector and display interest that a generic safety shirt does not.
