Product Overview
The Result Workguard Vostex Long Coat is a substantial piece of outerwear engineered for those who require maximum protection without compromising on professional presentation. This heavyweight coat is designed to withstand the rigours of the British weather, featuring a waterproof and windproof construction that serves as a reliable barrier against the elements. With its generous fit, it is specifically designed to be worn comfortably over suits or heavy layering, making it an ideal choice for site managers, supervisors, and outdoor professionals who need to maintain a sharp appearance in adverse conditions.
Key Features
- Heavy-duty 2-way full front zip: This robust fastening system allows for versatile ventilation and improved mobility, particularly when sitting or climbing into vehicles.
- Integrated storm protection: A stud and tear-release front storm flap, combined with a zip-off adjustable hood, ensures that wind and rain are kept firmly at bay.
- Taped seams: Fully taped seams provide a secondary layer of security against water ingress, ensuring the wearer remains dry even during prolonged exposure to wet weather.
- Comprehensive pocket system: Features front patch pockets with side handwarmer entry, plus internal and external chest pockets, providing ample secure storage for essential tools and personal items.
- Adjustable fit: An adjustable shockcord hem and tear-release external cuffs with inner rib storm cuffs allow the wearer to seal in warmth and prevent draughts.
Design & Performance
The performance of the Vostex Long Coat is rooted in its sophisticated material composition. The outer shell is crafted from a durable heavyweight Oxford polyester, treated with a PVC coating to achieve its waterproof rating. This high-denier fabric is exceptionally resilient against abrasions and general wear. Inside, a diamond-quilted lining and polyester wadding provide significant thermal insulation, trapping body heat effectively during winter shifts.
Visually, the coat stands out due to its Dobby design contrast panelling, which adds a sophisticated texture to the garment. The soft-feel tricot-lined collar ensures comfort against the skin, reducing irritation during long hours of wear. Subtle reflective piping is incorporated into the design, enhancing the wearer’s visibility in low-light environments without the overt look of high-visibility clothing.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This coat is an excellent canvas for corporate branding, with dedicated access points at the inside left chest and lower back for easy decoration. At MyWorkwear, we recommend embroidery for a sophisticated, durable finish that elevates your company logo and provides a truly professional appearance. The substantial fabric easily supports high-stitch-count designs.
For larger, high-impact branding, transfer printing is an effective alternative, allowing for sharp details and vibrant colours. Our Telford-based team, operating since 1976, can also coordinate your branding with the coat's interchangeable zip pull system, ensuring every detail of the garment aligns with your corporate identity.
Use Cases
Given its generous cut and formal length, the Vostex Long Coat is perfectly suited for management-level staff who transition between the office and outdoor environments. It is equally appropriate for security personnel, logistics supervisors, and surveyors who require a sturdy, weather-resistant garment that fits comfortably over a formal suit or bulky uniform.

Practical Advice
This coat is designed with a generous fit to accommodate a suit or heavy knitwear underneath. If you intend to wear it over just a single layer, such as a polo shirt, you may find that sizing down provides a more tailored silhouette. Always check the chest measurements in our sizing guide to ensure the best fit for your requirements.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical performance and professional appearance of this heavyweight coat, it is essential to follow the recommended care protocols. Washing the garment at a moderate 30°C temperature helps preserve the integrity of the PVC coating and prevents the taped seams from deteriorating prematurely.
Avoid the use of bleach at all costs, as these harsh chemicals will degrade the polyester fibres and cause the colour of the Dobby panelling to fade. Similarly, do not tumble dry this garment; high heat can damage the internal wadding and compromise the waterproof membrane. We recommend air drying away from direct heat sources.
If ironing is required, use a low heat setting and avoid direct contact with any printed areas to prevent melting the synthetic fabric or the decoration. For a more comprehensive clean that maintains the garment's structure, professional dry cleaning is a suitable and recommended option.
