Product Overview
The Result Core Junior Bodywarmer (R234J) is a well-engineered outerwear solution designed to provide children with reliable warmth and protection without the restrictive bulk of a full jacket. This puffer-style gilet is both showerproof and windproof, making it an ideal choice for the unpredictable British weather. Whether utilized for school uniforms, youth sports teams, or casual wear, its combination of soft-touch fabric and functional insulation ensures the wearer remains comfortable and thermally regulated throughout the day.
Engineered for practicality, this bodywarmer features a quiet-wear fabric that minimizes noise during movement—a subtle but appreciated detail for school environments. Its lightweight construction allows it to be easily packed away when not in use, making it a versatile addition to any young person's wardrobe.
Key Features
- Heavy Duty Zips: The front and pocket zips are built to withstand the frequent and sometimes heavy-handed use typical of junior wear, ensuring long-term reliability.
- Reflective Hip Detail: Integrated reflective elements enhance visibility during low-light conditions, providing an essential safety feature for the walk to school or evening activities.
- Soft Bound Armholes and Hem: Elasticised binding at the openings provides a snug fit that helps to trap heat while allowing for a full range of movement.
- Hinged Neck Panel: Specifically designed to facilitate self-branding, this feature allows for a professional finish on the interior of the garment.
- Showerproof and Windproof Protection: The 100% polyester outer shell acts as an effective barrier against light rain and biting winds.
Design & Performance
The performance of the Result Core Junior Bodywarmer lies in its multi-layered polyester construction. The outer shell is resilient and treated to repel water, while the interior is filled with a generous insulating layer that provides significant warmth without excessive weight. The inclusion of a contrast lining adds a touch of modern style to the classic puffer aesthetic.
Durability is at the forefront of the design. The polyester fabric is chosen for its ability to retain shape and resist the abrasions associated with active play. The garment is also "tag-free," featuring a tear-out label that is perfect for businesses or schools looking to re-brand the item as their own without the interference of original manufacturer tags.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This bodywarmer is an excellent candidate for both print and embroidery, and it has been designed with decorators in mind. For a traditional and highly durable finish, we recommend embroidery. It is particularly well-suited for school crests or club logos, providing a three-dimensional, professional appearance that stands up well to repeated laundering.
For larger, more vibrant designs—such as event names or bold branding across the back—print is an ideal alternative. The garment features hidden access via an inside front zip, allowing our Telford-based team to apply your branding directly to the outer fabric without stitching through the lining. At MyWorkwear, we have been perfecting these techniques since 1976, ensuring your logo is reproduced with absolute precision.
Use Cases
This garment is perfectly suited for junior school uniforms, providing an extra layer of warmth that fits comfortably over jumpers or polo shirts. It is also a popular choice for youth football clubs, scouting groups, and outdoor activity centres where mobility and weather protection are equally important. Given its stylish puffer design, it transitionally effortlessly from a professional team look to weekend leisure wear.
Why MyWorkwear
Choosing MyWorkwear means partnering with a company that has nearly half a century of expertise. Since 1976, we have operated from our base in Telford, Shropshire, where we combine traditional service values with modern technical capabilities. We understand the specific requirements of durable workwear and schoolwear, and we take pride in ensuring every garment that leaves our facility meets our rigorous standards for quality and finish.
Practical Advice
The R234J is available in a broad size range from XXS (ages 2-3) up to 2XL (ages 13-14). When choosing a size for school use, we suggest considering what will be worn underneath; if the child frequently wears heavy hoodies or thick knitwear, opting for a size that allows for comfortable layering is advisable. Its compact nature means it can be rolled up and stored in a school bag without becoming excessively creased.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-performance characteristics of the showerproof outer shell and the loft of the insulation, proper maintenance is essential. Neglecting care instructions can lead to a degradation of the water-repellent finish and may affect the integrity of your custom branding.
We recommend a gentle wash process to ensure the polyester fibres do not become damaged by excessive heat. Avoid the use of biological detergents that contain enzymes which can break down the technical coatings of the fabric. Always allow the garment to air dry naturally; high heat from tumble drying can cause the synthetic insulation to clump and may cause printed logos to peel or crack over time.
