All the winter coats they sell these days are darkly colored, with no
reflection strips. I improvised my own with chrome duct tape here, does
anyone have other suggestions?

Visit a sporting goods store or REI, if you live near one. There are many
options for runners and cyclists that you could adapt.

My local builders' suppliers is selling high visibility waistcoats at GBP
1.90 each - probably less than the cost of the tape and much more effective.

You can buy highly reflective strips, either velcro or stick-on, at many bicycle
and motorcycle accessory retailers.
