Key Features

- Core Insulation: By focusing warmth on the torso, this gilet helps regulate body temperature during active work without the bulk of a full jacket.
- Full-Length Zip: The robust front fastening allows for easy adjustment and quick temperature regulation throughout the working day.
- Deep Black Colour: The professional black finish provides a sharp, smart appearance that effectively hides common work-related marks and dust.
Design & Performance
Constructed with the demands of the workplace in mind, the Lapwing Softshell Gilet is built to endure. The fabric is durable enough to withstand frequent wear, making it a reliable staple for any uniform. The sleeveless design is particularly beneficial for professionals who require maximum dexterity, such as tradespeople or those handling equipment. Its performance is rooted in its ability to act as a barrier against the elements while maintaining a sleek, non-restrictive profile that fits comfortably over shirts or jumpers.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This gilet is specifically selected for its suitability for customisation. For a superior and highly professional appearance, we recommend embroidery for your company logo or staff names. The dense weave of the softshell fabric provides a stable foundation for high-quality stitching, ensuring your brand is represented with precision and durability.
Alternatively, for larger, more impactful designs, our high-quality printing process ensures vibrant and clear results. All customisation is managed by our expert in-house team in Telford, who have been perfecting workwear branding since 1976. This ensures your final product meets our rigorous standards for quality and professional presentation.
Use Cases
The Lapwing Softshell Gilet is an excellent choice for warehouse operatives, delivery drivers, and site supervisors who require flexibility and core warmth. It is equally suited for corporate events and client-facing roles where a smart yet functional outer layer is necessary. Its versatility allows it to transition easily between indoor settings and outdoor environments.

Practical Advice
For the best fit, we suggest considering what you intend to wear beneath the gilet; if you regularly wear heavy-weight sweatshirts, you may wish to allow for that extra layer when selecting your size. The black colour is particularly practical for maintaining a clean appearance in environments where light staining might be expected.
Caring for your product
To ensure the longevity of the garment and the quality of your custom branding, it is important to follow the specific care instructions located on the internal label. Regular maintenance according to these guidelines will help preserve the technical properties of the softshell fabric and keep your logo looking its best.
We recommend avoiding the use of harsh detergents or bleach, as these can degrade the fabric's protective qualities and damage the integrity of the embroidery or print. When washing, turning the gilet inside out can help protect the surface of your custom design from abrasion, ensuring your professional appearance is maintained for as long as possible.
