Stormtech Gravity thermal vest

Product Overview

The Stormtech Gravity thermal vest is a sophisticated solution for professionals who require consistent core warmth without the physical restriction of a full jacket. Engineered with a sleek profile, this body warmer utilizes a high-density showerproof D/W/R outer shell to provide a reliable barrier against the elements. The combination of an ultra-lightweight thermal fill and a soft internal liner ensures that heat is retained effectively while maintaining a professional, non-bulky silhouette. It is a versatile piece designed to function as a primary outer layer in transitional weather or as a high-performance mid-layer in more extreme conditions.

Key Features

• STORMTECH D/W/R durable water-resistant outer shell: This specialised coating ensures that moisture beads off the surface, keeping the wearer dry during light showers and damp conditions.
• Quilted body with ultra-soft liner: The quilted construction prevents the thermal insulation from shifting, while the liner provides a comfortable feel against the skin or base layers.
• Internal full-length storm flap and chin saver: These technical details work in tandem to block wind penetration through the zipper and prevent skin irritation at the neckline.
• Brushed tricot hand warmer pockets: These pockets offer a soft, insulated space to protect hands from the cold, a vital feature for those working outdoors in lower temperatures.
• Adjustable hem: This allows the wearer to customise the fit, sealing in body heat and preventing cold air from circulating around the torso.

Design & Performance

Constructed from 100% nylon ripstop, the outer shell is specifically designed to resist the snags and abrasions often encountered in active working environments. The 100% polyester polyfill provides substantial thermal insulation while keeping the garment exceptionally lightweight, reducing fatigue during long shifts. The interior is finished with a nylon taffeta lining, which allows the vest to slide effortlessly over other garments, ensuring full range of movement is maintained. The aesthetic is further enhanced by a centre front vilson zipper featuring contrast teeth, providing a modern, technical appearance that suits a wide variety of professional settings.

Customisation: Print & Embroidery

The Stormtech Gravity vest is an excellent candidate for corporate branding. For a high-calibre, professional appearance, we recommend embroidery. This method is particularly effective for company logos and staff names, providing a durable and textured finish that withstands regular wear. If you require large, bold graphics for promotional events, print provides a vibrant and sharp alternative. This garment is thoughtfully designed with a dedicated embroidery access point, allowing our team to apply your branding without compromising the internal lining. All customisation is handled in-house at our Telford facility by experts who have been specialising in workwear since 1976.

Use Cases

This thermal vest is ideally suited for site managers, supervisors, and logistics professionals who need to maintain a professional appearance while moving between vehicles, offices, and outdoor sites. It is also a popular choice for delivery drivers and tradespeople who require core warmth but need their arms free for manual tasks or driving. Its sleek design makes it equally appropriate for corporate gifting and team uniforms.

Practical Advice

The Gravity vest is available in an inclusive size range from Small up to 5XL. When choosing your size, consider your typical layering system; if you intend to wear this over a heavy hoodie or a thick sweatshirt, you may wish to opt for a size that allows for that additional volume. The lightweight nature of the fabric makes it very easy to pack away when not in use.

Caring for your product

To ensure your vest continues to provide optimal thermal protection and maintains its professional appearance, proper maintenance is essential. We recommend a cold machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours. Using cold water helps preserve the integrity of the synthetic fibres and the water-resistant coating.

It is important to avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will damage the polyester fill and can cause the nylon ripstop to become brittle or discoloured over time. To dry the garment, simply hang it up and allow it to air dry naturally. Subjecting the vest to the high heat of a tumble dryer can cause the synthetic insulation to clump and may damage the outer shell.

Do not iron this garment or any applied decorations. The high heat from an iron will likely melt the nylon fabric and destroy any custom print or embroidery. Additionally, do not dry clean this item, as the solvents used in the process can strip away the D/W/R finish that provides the vest’s showerproof properties.
