Jackets

Why choose branded jackets for workwear?

Branded workwear jackets help protect employees from cooler temperatures, wind and changing weather while maintaining a consistent professional appearance. They are particularly useful for tradespeople, construction teams, delivery drivers, warehouse staff, landscapers and employees who regularly work outdoors or move between indoor and outdoor environments.

A personalised jacket also makes company branding clearly visible when lighter uniform layers are covered, helping your team remain recognisable throughout the working day.

Choosing the right type of workwear jacket

The best jacket depends on the environment, weather conditions and level of physical activity involved. Lightweight jackets are useful for mild weather and everyday layering, while insulated jackets offer additional warmth during colder conditions.

Softshell jackets provide a smart appearance, good freedom of movement and useful protection from light wind and rain. More weather-resistant styles are better suited to employees who spend extended periods outdoors in difficult conditions.

Softshell, lightweight or insulated?

Softshell jackets are a popular choice for professional uniforms because they combine comfort, flexibility and a clean appearance. They are suitable for active roles and changing weather but should not automatically be treated as fully waterproof unless the individual garment specification confirms this.

Lightweight jackets are easy to carry and layer, making them ideal for spring, autumn and mobile workforces. Insulated and padded jackets provide greater warmth for winter, outdoor work and colder warehouses.

Embroidery or printing on jackets?

Embroidery is often the preferred method for smaller company logos because it creates a durable, professional finish. It is commonly used on the left chest, right chest and selected sleeves.

DTF printing can be suitable for colourful logos, detailed artwork and larger designs on compatible jacket fabrics. Because jacket materials, coatings and constructions vary, the most appropriate branding method depends on the individual garment and design position.

Choosing the correct logo position

The left chest is the most popular position for a company logo because it remains clearly visible and creates a professional appearance. The right chest can be used for employee names, job roles or a secondary logo.

Larger designs may be positioned on the back, while sleeve customisation may also be available depending on seams, pockets, padding and the construction of the selected jacket.

Are all jackets waterproof?

No. Some jackets are waterproof, while others are water-resistant, showerproof or designed mainly for warmth and wind protection. Product specifications should always be checked before choosing a jacket for prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

For teams working outdoors, consider how long employees will be exposed to wet weather, whether breathability is important and whether the jacket will be worn over other uniform layers.

Ordering jackets for your team

You can mix colours and sizes within the same order. Select one colour, add the required quantities for each size, then choose another colour and add a different combination of sizes to the same basket.

Automatic bulk discounts are applied to both the garments and the printing or embroidery as your order quantity increases, making branded jackets more cost-effective for teams of all sizes.

Are workwear jackets suitable for everyday use?

Yes. A well-chosen workwear jacket can provide warmth, comfort and practical protection while supporting a consistent company image. Many styles are designed to allow good movement and can be layered over T-shirts, polo shirts, sweatshirts or fleeces.

When selecting jackets for regular use, consider durability, garment weight, weather protection, pocket requirements and how the jacket will fit over the rest of your uniform.
