Product Overview
The SOL'S Wave Bodywarmer is a sophisticated, lightweight layering solution designed for professionals who require thermal protection without the restriction of a full jacket.

Design & Performance
The SOL'S Wave Bodywarmer is engineered from high-quality Polyamide 380T, a fabric chosen for its lightweight yet durable properties. This material provides a wind-resistant barrier that is essential for outdoor work. The interior is filled with polyester padding, which offers a soft, insulated feel that does not add unnecessary bulk, allowing for ease of movement during physical activity.
The design prioritises both form and function. The contrast zips and lining provide a sharp, professional finish that stands out in a corporate or leisure setting. Additionally, the garment carries several prestigious certifications, including OEKO-TEX Standard 100 and PETA-Approved Vegan status, reflecting a commitment to ethical manufacturing and safety from harmful substances.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This gilet is an excellent candidate for customisation, allowing you to showcase your brand with clarity and professional flair. Embroidery is highly recommended for the SOL'S Wave, as it provides a traditional and durable finish for company logos or staff names, which is particularly effective on the smooth polyamide surface.
For businesses seeking a bolder impact, our high-quality printing services are ideal for larger designs on the back of the gilet. Our expert in-house team, based in Telford since 1976, manages the entire process to ensure that your custom branding is applied with the precision and quality that your business deserves.
Use Cases
The versatile nature of the Wave Bodywarmer makes it suitable for a wide range of applications. It is particularly popular within the equestrian and sailing sectors, where lightweight weather protection is paramount. It also serves as an excellent uniform piece for corporate casual environments, providing a smart-looking layer for site visits or outdoor events.

Practical Advice
As this gilet features a fitted style, we recommend considering your layering requirements before selection. If you intend to wear this over a thick sweatshirt or jumper, you may find that opting for one size larger provides a more comfortable fit. For those wearing it over a standard polo shirt, your usual size will provide the intended streamlined silhouette.
Caring for your product
To ensure the continued performance of the showerproof finish and the integrity of your custom branding, proper maintenance is essential. Taking care of the garment helps to preserve the technical properties of the synthetic fibers and keeps your professional logo looking its best.
We recommend avoiding the use of high heat during laundering. Excessive temperatures can damage the polyamide outer and cause the internal padding to clump, which will reduce the garment's insulating effectiveness. Furthermore, heat can negatively affect the adhesive used in printed designs or cause embroidery threads to shrink.
Avoid the use of bleach or harsh chemical detergents, as these can strip the showerproof coating from the fabric and lead to premature fading of the contrast colours. For best results, allow the gilet to air dry naturally rather than using a tumble dryer, which helps maintain the fitted shape and prevents fabric degradation.
