Product Overview
The Stormtech Avalante full-zip fleece jacket is a sophisticated piece of outerwear designed for those who require consistent warmth without compromising on their environmental principles. As a standout member of the Pure Earth sustainable collection, this jacket is crafted from a significant proportion of recycled polyester, offering a substantial weight that provides excellent insulation against the British chill. It is a garment that balances technical performance with a professional aesthetic, making it an ideal choice for a variety of sectors.
Key Features
The raglan sleeve design is specifically engineered to allow for unrestricted movement, ensuring the jacket fits well whether you are reaching for tools or driving between sites.
Integrated zippered pockets serve a dual purpose: they provide a secure storage solution for small valuables and a warm, dry environment for your hands during outdoor work.
A full front zipper featuring a low-profile chin saver ensures the wearer is protected from the wind while preventing the discomfort of a zip catching against the skin.
Composed of 75% recycled polyester, this fleece allows your business to demonstrate a commitment to sustainability without sacrificing durability.
Design & Performance
This jacket is constructed from a heavy-weight polyester fleece that prioritises thermal efficiency. The fabric is designed to trap air within its fibres, creating a layer of warmth that remains effective even as the temperature drops. The texture is soft yet resilient, capable of withstand the daily demands of a professional environment. The fit is generous enough to accommodate base layers while remaining streamlined enough to fit comfortably under a more robust waterproof shell if required.
Customisation: Embroidery Only
Due to the textured, high-pile nature of this fleece fabric, we offer embroidery as the sole customisation method. Heat-applied prints are unsuitable for this material as they cannot achieve a permanent bond with the fleece fibres, leading to potential peeling. Embroidery, however, allows our Telford-based team to stitch your logo directly into the fabric. This creates a premium, three-dimensional finish that is as durable as the jacket itself, ensuring your branding remains intact through countless wash cycles.
Use Cases
The Avalante fleece is perfectly suited for site managers, surveyors, and tradespeople who move frequently between indoor and outdoor environments. Its clean lines also make it an excellent choice for corporate uniforms where a professional yet practical appearance is required. It is particularly effective for those working in colder climates or draughty warehouses where maintaining core temperature is essential for productivity.

Practical Advice
This fleece is designed with a standard fit, intended to sit comfortably over a shirt or polo. We recommend consulting the sizing guide, which ranges from Small to 2XL, to ensure the raglan sleeves can perform their job of allowing full range of motion. If you are between sizes, consider the larger option if you intend to wear several layers underneath during the winter months.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and thermal properties of your fleece, we recommend a cool wash at 30°C. Washing at higher temperatures can damage the recycled polyester fibres, leading to a loss of softness and potential shrinkage.
We advise against the use of bleach or harsh chemicals, which can degrade the fabric and cause the colours of both the jacket and your embroidered logo to fade. For the best results, allow the garment to air dry; the high heat of a tumble dryer can cause the fleece to pill and may distort the tension of the embroidery stitching.
