Engineered for Performance

The Regatta Thermal Long Sleeve Vest is a critical component for any business operating in sub-zero or unheated environments. Constructed from a specialised 220gsm polycotton fabric, this garment offers superior thermal resistance compared to standard cotton alternatives. The inclusion of polyester significantly enhances the fabric's tensile strength and abrasion resistance, ensuring it survives the rough and tumble of construction, landscaping, and heavy industry. The long-sleeve design extends thermal protection all the way to the wrists, sealing the gap between gloves and sleeves that often leads to heat leakage. This comprehensive coverage is vital for maintaining dexterity in the extremities, a key factor in preventing accidents during manual tasks. By integrating these Baselayers into your PPE inventory, you provide a consistent, regulated body temperature for your team, reducing fatigue and the risk of cold-induced illnesses. The fabric's structure also supports moisture management, moving sweat away from the body to prevent the 'chill factor' when activity levels drop after a period of exertion.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Designed with the shift worker in mind, this thermal vest prioritises long-term wearability. The lightly brushed inner surface provides a soft, fleece-like feel against the skin, eliminating the scratchiness often associated with wool or lower-grade thermals. This is crucial for maintaining staff morale during long hours on site. The fit is engineered to be snug yet flexible, accommodating the natural movements of the torso and arms without restriction. Whether reaching overhead, lifting heavy loads, or driving machinery, the vest remains in place, providing a second-skin feel that layers seamlessly under tunics, sweatshirts, or waterproof jackets. The durability of the polycotton blend means the garment retains its shape and thermal properties wash after wash, offering excellent cost-per-wear value for procurement managers. It is a garment that employees will actively choose to wear, ensuring compliance with health and safety recommendations for cold weather working.

Ideal Workplace Applications

• Outdoor security and event management.
• Construction sites and road maintenance.
• Unheated warehousing and distribution hubs.

Corporate Branding & Compatibility

While primarily an undergarment, the smooth weave of the polycotton allows for custom branding application, perfect for kit marking or subtle corporate identity. You can easily style alongside Trousers to create a comprehensive thermal defence system for your workforce.
