Product Overview
The Stormtech Womens Avalante full-zip fleece jacket represents a significant step forward in professional outerwear, combining technical performance with a clear commitment to sustainability. As part of the Pure Earth collection, this jacket is designed to provide long-lasting warmth during demanding cold-weather shifts. The substantial, heavyweight fleece fabric offers a premium feel that stands up to the rigours of daily wear, while the tailored fit ensures a professional appearance for the modern workforce.
Key Features
- Pure Earth Sustainable Construction: Crafted from a high-quality blend featuring 75% recycled polyester, allowing your business to demonstrate environmental responsibility without sacrificing durability.
- Raglan Sleeve Design: This specific sleeve construction allows for a full range of arm movement, ensuring the jacket does not pull or restrict you while you work.
- Secure Zipped Pockets: Both hands and valuables are kept protected and warm, with high-quality zips that prevent items from falling out during active tasks.
- Full Front Zip with Chin Saver: The low-profile chin guard prevents the zip from irritating your skin, providing extra comfort when the jacket is fully fastened against the elements.
Design & Performance
The Avalante jacket is engineered for thermal efficiency. The heavy-duty polyester fleece creates a dense thermal barrier that traps heat effectively, making it an ideal choice for outdoor site visits or draughty warehouse environments. The fabric is not only warm but also remarkably resilient; the blend of recycled and standard polyester ensures the garment retains its shape and professional finish even after repeated use. The feminine cut is designed to be flattering while remaining practical for a work environment.
Customisation: Embroidery Only
To maintain the high-end aesthetic of this Stormtech garment, we offer embroidery as the sole customisation method. The textured, high-pile nature of fleece fabric is not suited to heat-transfer printing, which can fail to adhere correctly or flatten the fibres. Embroidery, however, provides a three-dimensional, premium finish that sits perfectly within the fleece. Our Telford-based embroidery team, who have been perfecting their craft since 1976, uses industrial-grade machinery to ensure your company logo is rendered with precision and longevity.
Use Cases
This fleece jacket is exceptionally versatile. It is perfectly suited for management and supervisory roles where a professional image is required on-site, or for front-of-house staff operating in cooler environments. It also serves as an excellent mid-layer for those working in extreme cold, or as a standalone outer layer during the autumn and spring months.

Practical Advice
The Avalante jacket is designed with a professional fit in mind. If you intend to wear multiple thick layers underneath, you may wish to consider the larger end of your size range. The raglan sleeves are particularly beneficial for those in active roles, as they eliminate the shoulder seam that can sometimes cause discomfort when wearing a heavy rucksack or tool belt.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the integrity of your fleece and the quality of your embroidery requires careful attention to the washing process. We recommend a cool wash at 30°C to preserve the recycled polyester fibres and prevent any potential shrinkage. High temperatures can damage the structure of the fleece, leading to "pilling" or a loss of softness.
Avoid the use of bleach or harsh chemical detergents, as these can strip the colour from both the jacket and the embroidery threads. When drying, it is best to air dry the garment; machine drying can cause the synthetic fibres to become brittle over time. Proper care ensures the jacket remains a core part of your professional wardrobe for seasons to come.
