Design & Performance
Engineered for versatility, this gilet utilizes a lightweight softshell fabric that offers a modern, slim profile. The two-layer design is specifically chosen to provide a barrier against the wind while remaining breathable enough for indoor use. Because it lacks sleeves, it is the perfect middle ground for those working in environments where temperature fluctuates, or for active roles where arm restriction is a hindrance. The fabric is durable enough for daily use while maintaining a soft, comfortable feel against the skin.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This item is available with both print and embroidery customisation. Embroidery delivers a textured, premium appearance that is ideal for company logos and individual names. It is exceptionally hard-wearing and is designed to stand up to repeated washing without fading or losing its professional finish. Alternatively, print is better suited to large, bold designs and allows for a broader range of colours and intricate details. Our dedicated in-house team handles all customisation from our facility in Telford, drawing on decades of experience since our establishment in 1976.
Use Cases
This gilet is an excellent choice for promotional events, exhibitions, and trade shows where staff need to be easily identifiable. It also serves as a practical uniform layer for delivery drivers, warehouse staff, or retail employees who move frequently between different environments. Its smart appearance also makes it suitable for corporate office wear during the colder months.

Practical Advice
Given the broad size range from S to 5XL, we recommend checking your team's requirements carefully to ensure a comfortable fit for everyone. This gilet is designed to be worn over shirts, polo shirts, or base layers; if you intend to wear it over thicker jumpers, you may wish to consider this when selecting your sizes. Its lightweight nature means it can be easily folded and stored when not required.
Caring for your product
To maintain the professional appearance and the integrity of the softshell fabric, it is essential to follow the specific instructions found on the internal care label. Proper care ensures the garment continues to perform as expected and your branding remains in top condition.
Washing at the recommended temperature is important to prevent fabric shrinkage and to protect the adhesive or stitching used in your custom logo. Avoiding bleach is necessary as harsh chemicals can strip the colour from the fabric and weaken the synthetic fibres, leading to premature wear.
We recommend air drying this garment rather than using a tumble dryer. High heat can damage the technical properties of the softshell and may cause printed designs to peel or crack over time. If ironing is required, use a low setting and avoid direct contact with any printed or embroidered areas to prevent melting or distortion.
