Product Overview
The Women's Quilted Flight Jacket by 2786 is a contemporary reimagining of the iconic bomber silhouette, specifically tailored for a feminine, slim-fit profile. This jacket balances retro styling with modern practical requirements, making it an excellent year-round choice for businesses looking to outfit staff in high-quality, fashionable outerwear. The diamond-shaped quilting is not merely aesthetic; it ensures even distribution of the insulating wadding, while the matt-finish nylon provides a refined and professional appearance that avoids the excessive shine often associated with lower-quality flight jackets.
Key Features
- Diamond Quilted Construction: This design maintains the integrity of the internal insulation, ensuring consistent warmth across the torso and sleeves.
- Classic Bomber Styling: The elasticated ribbed knit collar, cuffs, and hem provide a secure fit and help to trap body heat, protecting the wearer from cold draughts.
- Interchangeable Zip Pulls: Supplied with both orange and black bungee cord style zip pulls, allowing for subtle customisation or alignment with specific brand colours.
- Integrated Storage: Features two side slit pockets for convenience and an internal zip pocket for the secure storage of valuables or essential equipment.
- Rebrandable Design: The absence of a branded neck label and the presence of cut-away inner labels make this an ideal garment for companies looking to create their own bespoke range of branded clothing.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a lightweight 100% nylon outer fabric, this jacket is designed for durability and ease of movement. The matt finish offers a sophisticated texture that resists the typical wear and tear of a busy working environment. Inside, a polyester lining and wadding provide effective thermal regulation. Because the wadding is of a substantial weight, it offers warmth without the bulkiness of traditional heavy coats, ensuring the wearer remains agile throughout the day. The slim fit and waistline finish offer a modern aesthetic that transitions seamlessly from indoor to outdoor environments.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This flight jacket has been specifically engineered with customisation in mind. It features a dedicated access point within the internal lining, which allows our technical team to apply embroidery or print without piercing through the wadding or affecting the jacket's aesthetic from the inside. For a refined and professional image, we recommend embroidery on the chest, which provides a high-quality, long-lasting finish for company logos. For larger, more striking designs, high-definition printing is an excellent alternative. All customisation is performed by our expert in-house team in Telford, drawing on our heritage in workwear production that dates back to 1976.
Use Cases
This jacket is particularly well-suited for the hospitality and retail sectors, where a modern, stylish uniform is required. It is an ideal choice for front-of-house staff in alfresco dining environments or for teams working in boutiques and modern trade spaces. Its versatile design also makes it a popular option for corporate gifts and promotional events where a premium, fashionable garment is preferred over standard utility wear.

Practical Advice
This jacket is designed with a slim fit to create a sharp, professional silhouette. If your staff intend to wear heavy knitwear or multiple layers beneath the jacket, you may wish to consider ordering one size larger than their standard measurement to ensure maximum comfort and range of motion. The size range spans from XS (UK 8) to 2XL (UK 18), providing a comprehensive fit for your entire team.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical performance and visual appeal of your jacket, we recommend a gentle machine wash at 30°C. Using a mild detergent at lower temperatures helps to preserve the integrity of the nylon fibres and ensures that any custom embroidery or print remains vibrant and intact.
Avoid the use of bleach or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the synthetic fabrics and lead to premature fading or damage to the matt finish of the outer shell.
When ironing is required, use a low heat setting. High heat can damage the polyester wadding and lining, potentially causing the garment to lose its shape or insulating properties.
The jacket should not be tumble dried or dry cleaned. Air drying is the safest method to protect the structure of the garment and the quality of your branding, ensuring the jacket remains a reliable part of your workwear rotation for as long as possible.
