Product Overview
The Ribbon Eskimo unisex heated padded gilet represents a significant advancement in personal thermal management for those working in unpredictable British environments. Designed to provide active warmth rather than just passive insulation, this garment features an integrated heating system that allows the wearer to maintain a comfortable core temperature regardless of the external conditions. The padded construction provides a substantial feel without compromising mobility, making it an ideal choice for professionals who require both warmth and freedom of movement.
Key Features
- Five Fast-Heating Zones: Strategically placed heating elements ensure rapid warmth distribution across the torso, targeting areas most prone to heat loss.
- Three Variable Heat Settings: Adjust your level of warmth to suit the environment, preventing overheating during physical exertion and providing maximum comfort during stationary tasks.
- Independent Front and Back Controls: Dual-zone heating allows for precise temperature management, letting you focus heat where it is needed most.
- Integrated Power Bank Pocket: A dedicated internal pocket keeps your power source secure and protected, featuring a universal USB-A connection for compatibility with most standard power banks.
Design & Performance
Constructed with a 100% nylon outer shell, this gilet is engineered for durability and resistance to the rigours of a daily work schedule. The interior is filled with 100% polyester insulation, which works in tandem with the heating elements to trap warmth effectively. Despite its substantial padding, the fabric remains soft and comfortable against the body. The unisex design ensures a versatile fit across a wide range of body types, while the tagless finish removes the risk of irritation at the neckline.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
At MyWorkwear, we understand that your clothing is a reflection of your business identity. This gilet is fully compatible with both print and embroidery. For a traditional, high-end professional appearance, we recommend embroidery for company logos and staff names; our Telford-based team uses precision machinery to ensure a crisp, durable finish. Alternatively, for large-scale branding or high-visibility messaging, our printing services offer bold, vibrant results that stand out. Having been established in 1976, we have the technical expertise to ensure your branding is applied without compromising the integrity of the heating elements.
Use Cases
This heated gilet is an essential asset for warehouse personnel working in cold storage or unheated facilities, as well as site managers and outdoor event staff who face long hours in static positions. It is equally suited for delivery drivers and tradespeople who frequently move between heated vehicles and cold outdoor environments.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider the layers you intend to wear beneath the gilet. For the heating elements to be most effective, the garment should sit relatively close to the body. Please note that a power bank is required for the heating function and must be purchased separately. Ensure your power bank uses a standard USB-A connection.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance of the heating elements and the integrity of the fabric, we recommend a machine wash at 30°C on a delicate cycle. This lower temperature prevents damage to the internal wiring and helps to preserve the life of the padding. Alternatively, hand washing is a safe method to ensure the garment remains in peak condition.
Avoid the use of bleach or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the nylon outer and the polyester filling, potentially leading to a loss of insulation and structural damage. Always ensure the USB connector is completely dry before reconnecting it to a power source to prevent electrical faults.
