Outdoor Gilets & Bodywarmers in Bulk

Outdoor gilets, often referred to as bodywarmers, offer a unique combination of core warmth and arm mobility. This makes them particularly effective for active outdoor pursuits where full jackets might be too restrictive or cause overheating. By keeping the torso warm, they help maintain overall body temperature while allowing for better ventilation. Our selection includes lightweight fleece options from Stedman and insulated versions from Regatta, catering to different weather conditions. They are also highly packable, making them a practical choice for changing British weather. Whether you are hiking, working on-site, or managing an event, a gilet provides a versatile layering piece that can be worn over shirts or under heavier coats.

Yes, the majority of our outdoor gilets are designed with customisation in mind. Many models, such as those from Russell and Regatta, feature specific access points like zipped embroidery linings to make the branding process smoother and more professional. These gilets are ideal for creating custom team gear or promotional merchandise for clubs and associations. Because they are durable and frequently worn as an outer layer, they provide excellent visibility for your brand. You can choose from various materials, including anti-pill fleece and smooth polyester, which serve as great canvases for both embroidery and screen printing. Customising your outdoor apparel helps build a unified team identity while providing practical, high-quality clothing.

Our inventory features some of the most respected names in the outdoor and workwear industry. We carry products from Regatta, a brand synonymous with outdoor durability and technical performance. You will also find Stedman, known for their comfortable and insulating fleece products, and Russell, which offers premium fits and modern styles. These brands are selected for their commitment to quality, ensuring that the gilets you purchase in bulk will withstand the rigours of outdoor use. By offering a variety of brands, we ensure that you can find the specific features you need, such as adjustable shockcord hems, zipped pockets, or breathable micro-fleece, all at competitive wholesale prices.

The choice depends largely on the intended environment and activity level. Fleece gilets, like the Stedman ST5010, are excellent for breathability and providing lightweight insulation. They are perfect for active use or as a mid-layer in very cold weather. On the other hand, insulated bodywarmers, such as the Regatta TRA831 with Thermo-Guard technology, offer superior wind resistance and heat retention for static activities or harsher conditions. Insulated versions often feature water-resistant outer shells, making them more suitable for damp environments. If you need a versatile all-rounder for staff uniforms, a fleece is often preferred for its softness and comfort, while an insulated gilet is better for dedicated outdoor work.
