One that fits is more important than the colour. You can always add some hi viz decals. I don't think a hi viz helmet makes a cyclist anymore visible. Better off with a gilet, gloves or overshoes from a driver perspective

Couple of road ones here if you really want to wear one

I was thinking shoes , gloves ( which I wear already ) and a helmet for hi vis , but gilet is an option even though Iv just bought an Altura one in black ( I know lol)

I've a pearl izumi one, fantastic piece of kit, been through the wash loads and it is still as bright as the day I bought it, as @jefmcg will probably attest!

Look at gore or castelli too. Pink would be different from street worker yellow, or orange

DHB do some good bright yellow gilets and jerseys. I picked up a Louis Garneau one from Evans in clearance last year, it's very nice! Wore it this morning in the mist.

It's the only "hi viz" thing I have apart from waterproofs, I usually just go for red or red/white/black.
