Product Overview
The Result Ultra Padded Bodywarmer (RE88A) is a robust thermal layer engineered for those who require core warmth without the restriction of a full jacket. Designed with a horizontal quilted outer and a soft microfibre finish, this garment offers a sophisticated appearance while providing essential protection against the elements. Its high warmth-to-weight ratio makes it an ideal choice for fluctuating UK weather, allowing for easy transitions between indoor and outdoor tasks without the bulk typically associated with heavy insulation.
Key Features
- Integrated Concealed Hood: Tucked neatly into the collar, the adjustable shockcord hood provides immediate protection against unexpected rainfall or wind chill.
- Heavy-Duty Front Fastening: The full-length zip is built to withstand frequent use, ensuring the bodywarmer remains secure and functional in demanding work environments.
- Functional Storage: Featuring two front pockets and a dedicated chest pocket, this garment provides ample space for essential tools and mobile devices.
- Customisable Fit: Adjustable shockcords at the collar, armholes, and hem allow the wearer to seal in heat and tailor the fit to their specific body shape.
Design & Performance
Construction is at the heart of the RE88A. The outer shell is crafted from a soft-touch polyester microfibre peach fabric that is both windproof and water-repellent. Unlike standard polyester, this microfibre finish provides a professional, matte look that doesn't sacrifice durability. To ensure maximum heat retention, the garment features hand-filled padded wadding, which creates air pockets that trap warmth close to the body.
The interior is lined with an active fleece, providing an additional layer of thermal insulation that feels comfortable against the skin or over a uniform. By using recycled materials in its construction, Result has ensured that this performance garment is as considerate of the environment as it is of the wearer's comfort. The substantial padding provides a sturdy feel without making the garment cumbersome for manual labour.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This bodywarmer is a premier choice for company branding. For a high-end, durable finish, we recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team uses industrial-grade machinery to ensure logos and names are rendered with precision, providing a professional appearance that lasts the lifetime of the garment. For larger, more vibrant promotional graphics, various print methods including direct and transfer printing are available.
A significant advantage for customisation is the inclusion of concealed zips in the outer shoulder panel and inner side seam. These decorator access points allow our team to apply your branding directly to the outer fabric without stitching through the lining or affecting the insulation. This ensures the garment's performance remains uncompromised after customisation.
Use Cases
The RE88A is perfectly suited for a wide range of sectors, from logistics and construction to hospitality staff working in alfresco dining areas. It serves as an excellent outer layer for supervisors who move between the office and the site, or as a mid-layer for tradespeople working in unheated environments. Its unisex design and broad size range make it a versatile staple for diverse workforces.

Practical Advice
This bodywarmer is designed with a generous fit to accommodate layering. If you intend to wear it over a heavy sweatshirt or hoodie, your standard size should suffice. However, if you prefer a closer fit for wear under a larger waterproof coat, you may wish to consult our sizing guide to ensure the armholes sit comfortably. The shockcord hem is particularly useful for preventing updrafts when working at height or in exposed conditions.
Caring for your product
To maintain the water-repellent properties and the loft of the hand-filled insulation, we recommend a domestic wash at 30°C. Washing at higher temperatures can degrade the microfibre outer and lead to a loss of structural integrity over time.
Do not use bleach on this garment. Bleach is an aggressive chemical that will strip the colour from the polyester and destroy the windproof coating, leaving your team vulnerable to the elements.
When drying, use a tumble dryer on a low heat setting. This helps to redistribute the internal wadding and maintain the bodywarmer's shape. High heat should be avoided, as it can melt the synthetic fibres. Similarly, if ironing is required, use a low heat setting to avoid surface scorching. Dry cleaning is not recommended, as the chemicals used can be detrimental to the recycled insulation materials.
