Product Overview
The Kariban Sherpa-lined fleece overshirt is a robust addition to any professional wardrobe, designed to bridge the gap between a standard shirt and a technical jacket. Constructed from a high-quality microfleece with a dense sherpa lining, this garment provides significant insulation against the cold while maintaining a sharp, professional appearance. Whether worn as a heavyweight outer layer in the spring or as a warm mid-layer during the winter months, it offers versatility and comfort without the bulk of a traditional coat.
Key Features
- The microfleece outer combined with a Sherpa inner provides exceptional heat retention and a soft-to-the-touch feel for all-day comfort in cold environments.
- Two flap chest pockets offer secure storage for small essentials, ensuring your tools or mobile device are within easy reach while you work.
- The classic placket with tone-on-tone buttons maintains a clean, uniform look suitable for customer-facing roles.
- Adjustable buttoned cuffs allow for a customisable fit, helping to seal in warmth or provide extra ventilation when the work intensity increases.
- A rounded hem ensures the garment sits comfortably over trousers, providing extra coverage and a modern silhouette.
Design & Performance
This overshirt is engineered for durability and thermal efficiency. The heavyweight polyester construction is specifically chosen for its ability to withstand the rigours of a busy working day while resisting the pilling often associated with lesser fleece fabrics. The microfleece exterior acts as a resilient barrier against the elements, while the plush sherpa interior traps air to create a thermal pocket around the body, keeping you warm without restricting movement.
The design balances functionality with ethical manufacturing, featuring certifications from BSCI, Oeko-Tex, and Sedex. This ensures that your workwear not only performs to a high standard but also meets rigorous international safety and social responsibility criteria. It is a reliable choice for those who require their clothing to be as hardworking as they are.
Customisation: Embroidery Only
This garment is specifically designated for embroidery only. The deep pile of the sherpa lining and the textured nature of the microfleece outer make it unsuitable for heat-transfer printing, which would struggle to adhere correctly to the fibres. Embroidery, however, provides a premium, permanent branding solution that can handle the fabric's thickness and texture.
Our in-house embroidery team, operating in Telford since 1976, uses high-precision stitching to ensure your company logo remains crisp and durable. The thread is woven directly into the fabric, creating a professional three-dimensional finish that complements the high-quality feel of this overshirt and survives repeated laundering better than any print alternative.
Use Cases
This overshirt is ideal for site managers, surveyors, or tradespeople who transition frequently between indoor and outdoor environments. Its smart-casual appearance makes it equally at home in a warehouse or during a client consultation. It is particularly effective for staff working in unheated environments or as part of a professional cold-weather uniform for outdoor events and autumn site visits.

Practical Advice
This overshirt features a generous fit to allow for layering. If you intend to wear it over a thick sweatshirt, your standard size should be sufficient. However, if you prefer a more tailored look to wear over a simple T-shirt, you may wish to consult the size guide to ensure the chest measurements align with your preference. The rounded hem is designed to be worn untucked for maximum comfort and range of motion.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the thermal properties and appearance of your overshirt requires careful laundering to preserve the synthetic fibres. We recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. Exceeding this temperature can damage the microfleece, leading to a loss of softness and potential shrinkage.
Do not use bleach, as harsh chemicals will degrade the polyester fibres and cause the colour of your embroidered logo to fade prematurely. If drying is necessary, use a low temperature setting; high heat can 'singe' the sherpa lining, causing it to mat and lose its insulating properties.
This garment must not be ironed. The heat from an iron will melt the fleece surface, resulting in permanent damage to the fabric's texture. Similarly, avoid the use of solvents or dry cleaning to ensure the structural integrity of the overshirt remains intact for the life of the garment.
