Product Overview
The Nimbus Women's Bleecker is an expertly crafted bomber jacket that successfully bridges the gap between vintage-inspired fashion and modern technical performance. Designed with a contemporary cropped length and a regular fit, this jacket provides a sophisticated silhouette suitable for a variety of professional environments. It is constructed using high-quality recycled polyester twill, demonstrating a commitment to sustainability without compromising on the garment's longevity or aesthetic appeal. The inclusion of the Bionic Finish ECO water-repellent treatment ensures that the jacket remains functional in unpredictable weather, offering a refined solution for modern corporate outerwear.
Key Features
- Buttoned side pockets: These provide secure storage for essential items, ensuring belongings are safe while maintaining the jacket's sleek profile.
- Ribbed hem and cuffs: The rib-knit finish ensures a comfortable, secure fit that helps retain heat and maintains the garment's shape over time.
- Recycled fabric construction: Utilizing materials derived from plastic bottles and textile waste, this jacket supports environmental initiatives and CSR goals.
- Bionic Finish ECO: This advanced impregnation provides a water-repellent surface that allows moisture to bead off, keeping the wearer dry during light showers.
- Windproof and breathable: The integrated TPU membrane blocks cold winds while allowing internal moisture to escape, ensuring comfort throughout the working day.
Design & Performance
This jacket is engineered from a lightweight recycled polyester twill that offers a smooth, durable exterior. The interior is lined with a soft recycled polyester satin, providing a smooth layering experience over shirts or knitwear. Despite its fashionable appearance, the Bleecker is built for performance; it features a technical membrane that offers substantial water resistance and breathability. The cropped length is specifically designed for a modern female fit, ensuring ease of movement and a professional appearance that sits correctly at the waist. The finish is notably matte, avoiding the shiny look often associated with cheaper polyester garments, which reinforces its status as a premium corporate layer.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Nimbus Bleecker is an excellent candidate for both print and embroidery, allowing for a highly professional appearance tailored to your brand. Embroidery is particularly effective on this fabric, offering a textured, durable finish for company logos or staff names that communicates quality and attention to detail. For larger, more vibrant promotional designs or bold back graphics, our high-quality printing techniques provide a sharp, clear finish that complements the jacket's contemporary style. All customisation is carried out at our Telford facility by an expert team with decades of experience, ensuring your branding is applied with precision.
Use Cases
The versatile design of the Bleecker makes it an ideal choice for customer-facing staff in the hospitality, retail, and creative sectors. Its vintage aesthetic also makes it a popular option for modern corporate teams looking for a less traditional alternative to the standard blazer or softshell. It is equally at home as a stylish piece of uniform for event staff or as a premium gift for employees and clients who value sustainable, high-performance apparel.

Practical Advice
The Bleecker features a regular fit but is designed with a shorter, cropped length. We recommend reviewing the size guide carefully to ensure the desired fit, particularly if you intend to layer the jacket over heavier knitwear. Given its windproof properties, it serves as an excellent outer layer in transitional seasons, providing warmth without the bulk of a traditional heavy coat.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and professional look of your jacket, it is essential to follow the care instructions precisely. A domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 30°C is recommended to preserve the recycled fibres and the integrity of the TPU membrane.
You must avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemical agents will degrade the Bionic Finish ECO water-repellent coating and may cause discolouration of the fabric and any custom branding. This jacket should not be tumble dried; the high heat and mechanical friction of a dryer can damage the delicate satin lining and the technical outer shell.
Furthermore, do not iron this garment. The heat from an iron can melt the synthetic fibres and cause permanent damage to the internal waterproof membrane. For the same reason, dry cleaning should be avoided to prevent the chemicals from compromising the jacket's technical properties. Hanging the jacket to air dry will help maintain its shape and finish for years to come.
