Product Overview
The Stormtech Base Thermal Zip represents a highly engineered approach to layering for the modern professional. Developed as a high-performance baselayer, it utilises H2X-DRY moisture management technology to ensure the wearer remains dry and comfortable, even during periods of high physical exertion. This is not merely a standard sweatshirt; it is a technical garment designed to regulate body temperature through a sophisticated double-knit fleece construction.
Key Features
- STORMTECH H2X-DRY Technology: This moisture-management system actively draws sweat away from the skin to the fabric's surface for rapid evaporation, keeping you dry throughout the working day.
- Grid Back Fleece: The internal grid structure provides superior thermal properties by trapping heat in the channels while simultaneously allowing for essential airflow and breathability.
- Snag-Resistant Fabric: Engineered to withstand the rigours of a busy workplace, the fabric is treated to resist snags and pulls, ensuring the garment maintains its professional appearance over time.
- Reverse Coil Front Zipper: The 1/4 zip design allows for immediate ventilation when temperatures rise and provides a clean, streamlined aesthetic.
- Contour Side Panels: These panels are tailored to follow the natural movement of the body, providing an ergonomic fit that doesn't restrict movement during manual tasks.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a blend of 95% polyester and 5% spandex, this medium-weight garment offers the perfect balance of flexibility and structure. The addition of spandex provides a necessary degree of stretch, allowing the garment to retain its shape after repeated wear and movement. The contrast cover stitching is not only a design choice but a reinforcement that adds to the overall durability of the seams.
The performance of this thermal zip is defined by its versatility. As a mid-layer, it provides significant warmth without the bulk of a traditional jacket. The drop-needle double-knit construction ensures that the fabric feels substantial and durable, yet remains breathable enough for indoor or high-activity use.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
To ensure your team presents a unified and professional image, this Stormtech garment is fully compatible with both print and embroidery customisation. For a more formal and permanent finish, we recommend embroidery; it is particularly effective for company logos or staff names, providing a textured, high-quality look that stands up well to frequent laundering.
Should you require larger, more vibrant branding—perhaps for a specific event or high-visibility promotional use—our precision printing services are an excellent alternative. All customisation is carried out by our expert in-house team in Telford, drawing on decades of experience to ensure your branding is applied with absolute precision.
Use Cases
This thermal zip is ideal for professionals working in logistics, construction site management, or any role that requires frequent movement between different environments. Its sleek design also makes it suitable for corporate events or as part of a sports and leisure uniform where temperature regulation is paramount.

Practical Advice
With a comprehensive size range extending from S to 6XL, this garment is designed to accommodate a wide variety of body types. We recommend reviewing the chest measurements carefully to ensure a comfortable fit, particularly if you plan to wear this as a primary baselayer beneath a heavier outer jacket. The contoured fit is designed to be close to the body for maximum thermal efficiency.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical performance and moisture-wicking properties of the H2X-DRY fabric, we recommend a machine wash at 30°C. Higher temperatures can damage the synthetic fibres and reduce the effectiveness of the thermal grid.
You should avoid the use of bleach, as this will degrade the polyester blend and cause the colours to fade prematurely. Similarly, the garment should not be tumble dried; air drying is essential to prevent shrinkage and to protect the integrity of any applied custom embroidery or print.
Dry cleaning is not recommended for this garment. The harsh chemicals used in the dry-cleaning process can strip the technical coatings from the fabric, significantly reducing its moisture-management capabilities.
