Product Overview
The Result Urban Outdoor Ice Bird Padded Gilet is a sophisticated take on the modern bodywarmer, designed to provide substantial core warmth without the restrictive bulk of traditional outerwear. This garment combines a contemporary, tailored silhouette with advanced insulation technology, making it an ideal choice for professionals who require complete freedom of movement while maintaining a polished appearance on-site or in the office.
Engineered to be exceptionally light despite its padded construction, this gilet utilizes a super air-soft handle fabric that is as comfortable as it is functional. It is a versatile layer that functions perfectly as an outer garment in transitional weather or as a thermal mid-layer during the colder winter months.
Key Features
Stand-up collar with integrated chin guard: This design provides essential protection against wind chill while ensuring the zip does not cause irritation against the skin during active use.
Hand-filled polyester fibre wadding: Unlike mass-produced alternatives, the hand-filled insulation ensures even distribution of warmth throughout the gilet, eliminating cold spots and maintaining a consistent thermal barrier.
Adjustable shock cord hem: This feature allows the wearer to customise the fit, sealing in heat and preventing drafts from entering through the waist, which is vital for outdoor work.
Secure storage solutions: Featuring zipped front pockets and an internal chest pocket, this gilet provides secure space for essential tools, mobile devices, or documentation.
Design & Performance
The Ice Bird gilet is constructed with a 100% polyester 50D outer shell that offers both water-repellent and windproof properties. This technical fabric ensures that light rain and bitter winds do not compromise your comfort. Inside, the garment is finished with a smooth polyester taffeta lining, which allows the gilet to glide easily over other workwear, such as hoodies or jumpers, without bunching.
The fashionable twin-needle quilting design is not merely for aesthetics; it serves to reinforce the structure of the garment and keeps the lightweight insulation securely in place even after prolonged wear. Furthermore, the fabric is specifically engineered to be quiet to wear, making it an excellent choice for environments where noise reduction is beneficial. The inner storm flap provides an additional layer of protection behind the full-front zip, ensuring wind cannot penetrate the fastening.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This gilet is an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery, allowing you to represent your business with a professional finish. Embroidery is the preferred method for company logos and staff names, offering a traditional, high-quality appearance that withstands the rigours of daily work and frequent laundering. For larger, more striking graphics, our high-definition printing provides a bold finish that remains sharp and visible.

Use Cases
The Ice Bird gilet is particularly suited for tradespeople who need to keep their core warm while keeping their arms free for manual tasks, such as electricians, plumbers, or carpenters. It is equally popular among warehouse supervisors, delivery drivers, and site managers who frequently transition between outdoor environments and vehicles. Its sleek, contemporary fit also makes it appropriate for front-of-house staff or corporate event uniforms where a professional yet practical look is required.

Practical Advice
This gilet features a contemporary fit and is available in a size range from S up to 2XL. To ensure the best performance and comfort, we recommend reviewing the sizing to fit measurements, as the tailored cut is designed to sit closer to the body. For those working in particularly harsh environments, this gilet serves as an excellent insulating layer beneath a larger waterproof parka or over a heavy-weight fleece.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the thermal efficiency and aesthetic of your gilet requires careful attention to the provided cleaning instructions. We recommend a domestic wash at 30°C. Using a lower temperature helps to maintain the integrity of the polyester fibres and ensures that your custom branding remains vibrant and intact for longer.
It is vital that you do not bleach this garment. Harsh chemical bleaches will break down the synthetic polyester wadding and damage the outer shell's water-repellent coating. Similarly, do not iron the gilet; the heat from an iron will melt the technical 50D polyester fabric and flatten the hand-filled insulation, permanently destroying its ability to trap heat.
To preserve the shape and performance of the garment, do not dry clean or tumble dry. Tumble drying can cause the internal padding to clump together, resulting in an uneven appearance and cold spots. Instead, allow the garment to air dry naturally to maintain its air-soft handle and professional appearance.
