Design & Performance
This waistcoat is constructed from a sturdy, medium-weight fabric that balances the resilience of polyester with the natural comfort of cotton. The polyester component provides excellent abrasion resistance and colour retention, while the cotton ensures the garment remains breathable against the skin. The addition of a mesh lining at the back is a deliberate design choice to manage moisture and heat, making it a reliable choice for long hours in the field.
Performance is further enhanced by the garment's ethical credentials. It is produced in accordance with REACH, OEKO-TEX Standard 100, and the Fair Wear Foundation standards, ensuring that while the waistcoat works hard for you, it has been manufactured with respect for both human health and global labour conditions.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The SOL'S Wild Waistcoat is an excellent candidate for corporate branding. For a sophisticated and enduring finish, we recommend embroidery for company logos or staff names. The dense weave of the polyester-cotton blend provides a stable foundation for high-quality stitching, ensuring your branding remains crisp and professional.

Caring for your product
To preserve the life of your waistcoat and any custom branding, it is important to follow standard care procedures for polyester-cotton blends. Regularly emptying pockets before cleaning will prevent unnecessary strain on the stitching and zippers.
Avoiding the use of strong bleaching agents is critical, as these can break down the fabric's fibres and cause the colours—and your embroidered logos—to fade prematurely. When drying, avoid high-heat settings to prevent any potential shrinkage and to maintain the structure of the mesh lining and curved yoke.
