Product Overview
The Premier PR815 Womens Recyclight Padded Gilet is a technically proficient outerwear solution designed for professionals who require a balance of warmth, mobility, and environmental responsibility. This garment is constructed from 100% certified recycled nylon and polyester, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional synthetic vests. The gilet features a refined silhouette tailored for the female form, utilizing horizontal baffle stitching to ensure that the recycled synthetic down insulation remains securely in place, preventing cold spots and maintaining a consistent thermal profile.
Beyond its eco-conscious credentials, the Recyclight gilet is engineered for practicality in the workplace. It is highly compressible, allowing it to be packed away into its own stuff sack when not in use, and features a water-resistant outer shell to protect against light rain. The inclusion of a cadet collar with a chin guard ensures wearer comfort throughout the day, making it an essential layer for fluctuating temperatures.
Key Features
- Certified Recycled Materials: The use of 100% recycled nylon and polyester supports corporate sustainability initiatives while providing the durability expected of professional workwear.
- Horizontal Baffle Detail: This design choice ensures even distribution of the internal insulation, maintaining the gilet's shape and thermal efficiency over time.
- Internal Embroidery Access: A dedicated zip in the lining provides full access for customisation, allowing branding to be applied without compromising the internal baffles or the lining's finish.
- Secure Storage: Equipped with two zipped side pockets and an additional internal open pocket, providing secure space for mobile devices and work essentials.
- Water-Resistant Finish: The outer shell provides a protective barrier against moisture, ensuring the wearer remains dry during light showers.
Design & Performance
The performance of this gilet is rooted in its lightweight construction. Despite being a substantial thermal layer, it remains thin enough to be worn under a jacket without restricting movement. The recycled nylon outer is tightly woven to provide wind resistance and durability, while the recycled polyester filling provides the loft required to trap heat. The zip-through design is finished with a zip guard and chin guard, preventing skin irritation and protecting the zip from catching on internal layers.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Premier Recyclight gilet is specifically designed to accommodate high-quality branding. The internal zip access is a significant technical feature, as it allows our embroidery machines to apply your logo directly to the outer shell without piercing through the insulation or the lining. This ensures a clean, professional finish on the inside of the garment and maintains the integrity of the padding.
For businesses looking for high-impact visuals, the smooth surface of the recycled nylon also supports quality print applications. Whether you choose embroidery for a traditional corporate identity or print for larger team designs, our in-house team in Telford—where we have been operating since 1976—will ensure your branding is executed with precision.

Its lightweight and packable nature makes it perfect for staff who travel between locations or work in varying climates.

Practical Advice
This gilet is available in a range of sizes from XS to 2XL, catering to various body types with a specified fit for women. For those working in particularly cold environments, we recommend layering this gilet over a thermal base layer or polo shirt. Its slim profile ensures it fits comfortably beneath a heavier waterproof coat if the weather turns severe.
Caring for your product
To maintain the longevity and performance of the recycled fabrics, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. Washing at this temperature ensures that dirt and oils are removed without damaging the delicate synthetic fibres or the water-resistant coating of the gilet.
Allow the gilet to air dry naturally to preserve the loft of the recycled insulation. Avoid using bleach or high-heat drying methods, as these can cause the recycled nylon to become brittle and may affect the adhesion of printed logos or the tension of embroidered threads. Proper care ensures the gilet remains a staple of your work wardrobe for a long time.
