Product Overview
The 2786 TS015 Bodywarmer is a masterclass in functional layering, designed for those who require warmth without the restriction of a full jacket. This well-engineered garment bridges the gap between sophisticated urban styling and practical workwear. By utilising a lightweight polyester fill housed within wide, horizontal stitched baffles, it provides effective thermal insulation while remaining easy to move in. Whether you are moving between site visits or managing a busy warehouse, this bodywarmer serves as an essential component of a professional uniform, designed to sit comfortably over a long-sleeved polo shirt or hoodie.
Key Features
- Tonal Coil Centre Zip: The front features a tonal coil zip with a signature puller, ensuring a seamless and professional appearance that does not detract from your company branding.
- Horizontal Wide Quilted Baffles: These baffles are designed to keep the lightweight filling evenly distributed, preventing cold spots and maintaining a consistent temperature.
- Smartphone Integration: Includes an internal shockcord loop specifically for headphone wire attachment, allowing for secure and organised communication while on the move.
- Secure Storage: Equipped with welt pockets and an internal chest patch pocket with a hook and loop fastening to keep personal items and tools secure.
- Embroidery Access: A dedicated internal zipped opening allows for clean customisation, ensuring the reverse of any embroidery is hidden between the outer shell and the lining.
Design & Performance
The construction of this bodywarmer focuses on thermal efficiency and longevity. The 100% polyester filling offers significant warmth-to-weight benefits, providing a substantial feel without the bulk of traditional padding. The garment is fully lined with tonal polyester, ensuring it slides easily over underlayers without catching or bunching.
The wide baffle design is not merely an aesthetic choice; it allows the lightweight fill to loft properly, trapping air and retaining body heat. The outer fabric and lining are engineered to withstand the rigours of a daily work environment, maintaining their shape and colour even after repeated wear.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This bodywarmer is an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery. The horizontal baffles provide a structured surface that responds well to heat-applied prints, making it suitable for large, bold company logos on the back. For a more traditional and refined professional look, we recommend embroidery on the chest.
The inclusion of an internal zipped access point is a significant technical advantage. This allows our Telford-based production team to apply embroidery directly to the outer shell without piercing the inner lining, resulting in a cleaner finish and greater comfort for the wearer. Having been established in 1976, we have the expertise to ensure your branding is applied with precision.
Use Cases
This garment is ideally suited for professionals in logistics, facility management, and the construction trades who require core warmth while maintaining full arm mobility. It is also a popular choice for hospitality staff working in outdoor dining environments or for corporate teams attending outdoor events where a professional yet approachable appearance is required.

Practical Advice
This bodywarmer is designed with a generous fit to accommodate layering over heavier garments like sweatshirts or fleeces. If you intend to wear it primarily over a lightweight t-shirt, you may wish to consider the smaller end of your usual size range. The internal back neck hanger loop is a simple but vital addition for keeping the garment in good condition when not in use.
Caring for your product
To maintain the loft of the polyester fill and the integrity of your custom branding, we recommend a machine wash at 30°C on a gentle setting. High temperatures can damage synthetic fibres and cause custom prints to degrade prematurely.
Bleaching agents should be avoided at all costs, as they will compromise the tonal colour of the fabric and weaken the stitching. For the best results, do not tumble dry this garment; instead, allow it to air dry naturally to maintain the shape of the quilted baffles.
If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting and avoid direct contact with any printed or embroidered areas. Dry cleaning is not recommended, as the chemicals used can strip the polyester fill of its insulating properties.
