the color is in fact neon red, more like orangish, it's fine if you're planning on controlling traffic, but otherwise....
and be warned, I ordered a size Small and it was humongous!!! maybe for a small obese person, I don't know, if so they should have specified! I could fit two of me inside there, it's that wide, despite the slender look it gives in the picture.
Wanted to return it but apparently have to pay for the postage, so now I'm gonna have to look for some wide traffic police women who might fancy it..!
