Product Overview
The Result Core Nova Lux padded gilet is a meticulously engineered layer designed for significant cold weather protection without the unnecessary bulk of a full jacket. This gilet serves as an essential piece of equipment for those working in variable temperatures, offering a balance of windproof and water-repellent properties. The modern styling ensures a professional appearance while providing the warmth required for outdoor duties. It features a substantial, thick padding that is hand-filled to ensure even distribution of heat, complemented by a soft-feel microfleece lining that remains comfortable against the skin throughout the working day.
Key Features
- Hand-Filled Polyester Wadding: Provides exceptional thermal insulation, trapping air effectively to keep the wearer warm in cold environments.
- Water-Repellent and Windproof Outer: The 210T polyester with AC coating protects against light rain and blustery conditions, keeping the core dry and comfortable.
- Zip-Off Adjustable Hood: The microfleece-lined hood can be easily removed when not required, offering versatility for different weather scenarios and personal preference.
- Heavy-Duty Front Zip: A robust full-front zip with a stud-closing storm flap prevents wind ingress and ensures the garment remains secure under heavy use.
- Comprehensive Storage: Features zipped side pockets for secure tool or personal item storage, along with an internal zipped chest pocket for more sensitive equipment.
- Adjustable Fit: An adjustable drawcord hem and elasticated armholes and waist allow the wearer to customise the fit, sealing in heat and preventing draughts.
Design & Performance
The construction of this gilet focuses on durability and thermal efficiency. The outer shell is crafted from 100% 210T polyester with an AC coating, which provides a resilient barrier against the elements. Performance is enhanced by the microfleece lining, which not only adds a layer of warmth but also aids in moisture management by being soft to the touch and breathable. The thick, dense padding is a key design element, offering a substantial feel that signifies its quality and protective capabilities. The inclusion of elasticated armholes ensures that despite the padding, the wearer retains full range of motion for manual tasks.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This gilet is an excellent candidate for customisation, with specific access points provided to ensure a high-quality finish. Embroidery is highly recommended for a professional appearance; it is ideal for corporate logos or staff names, providing a durable and textured result that withstands regular wear. The garment includes a concealed access point in the outer top back panel and the internal left chest specifically for this purpose. For those requiring larger, more prominent branding, print remains an option, particularly for bold graphics. Our expert team in Telford, established in 1976, manages all customisation in-house to ensure your branding meets our rigorous standards.
Use Cases
This gilet is perfectly suited for tradespeople, delivery drivers, and site managers who require core warmth while maintaining arm mobility. It is equally effective for warehouse staff working in chilled environments or for corporate teams needing a uniform that looks professional during outdoor events and site visits. The unisex design and wide size range make it a versatile choice for entire workforces.

Practical Advice
The Nova Lux padded gilet is designed for layering. When selecting your size, consider the garments you intend to wear underneath, such as a thick sweatshirt or fleece. The size range spans from XS to 3XL, covering chest sizes from 34 to 53 inches. If you are frequently between sizes, the adjustable drawcord hem allows for some flexibility in how the garment sits against the waist.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the integrity of the synthetic wadding and the water-repellent coating is vital for the longevity of this garment. We recommend a domestic wash at 30°C. Washing at higher temperatures may degrade the AC coating and affect the thermal properties of the polyester filling.
Do not use bleach on this garment, as it will weaken the polyester fibres and lead to significant discolouration. To preserve the structure of the padding, do not tumble dry; instead, allow the gilet to air dry naturally to prevent the wadding from clumping or losing its loft.
If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting. High heat can melt the synthetic outer shell. For the best results and to ensure the garment retains its professional look, professional dry cleaning is also an appropriate care method.
