Abstract: A reflective protective sleeve structure having a tubular a tubular structure, wherein the protective sleeve defines an internal surface and a reflective exterior surface. The sleeve is made from plastic monofilaments that are braided together. All the monofilaments are uniformly made of plastic. However, the plastic used to fabricate at least most of the monofilaments in the sleeve are fabricated from optically reflective plastic. Accordingly, the protective sleeve embodies optically reflective properties that make that sleeving highly visible at night when in range of the headlights of an approaching vehicle.
