Engineered for Performance

The Stormtech Stavanger Thermal Vest is a masterpiece of technical engineering designed for professionals who demand reliable core warmth without the restriction of heavy outerwear. At the heart of this garment lies its advanced thermal shell technology, constructed from a high-density 100% Nylon fabric that provides a robust barrier against wind and cold. The 40gsm weight is deceptive; it offers a warmth-to-weight ratio comparable to natural down, thanks to the innovative broken fibre polyfill that traps heat efficiently within the baffle structure. Crucially for outdoor operations, the exterior is treated with a PFC-Free Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, ensuring that light rain and mist bead off the surface rather than soaking in. This commitment to eco-friendly weather resistance makes it a sustainable choice for modern businesses. Whether your team operates in logistics, event management, or field sales, this gilet serves as a critical component of a layered clothing system, integrating seamlessly with heavy-duty Softshell jackets for extreme conditions or standing alone during transitional seasons. The durability of the nylon shell ensures it withstands the rigours of daily wear, maintaining its professional appearance shift after shift.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Operational efficiency is often dictated by comfort, and the Stavanger vest is sculpted with an ergonomic fit that prioritises freedom of movement. Unlike bulky bodywarmers that can impede arm lift or rotation, this vest features a streamlined profile that sits close to the body, retaining heat while allowing full range of motion. This is particularly beneficial for drivers, warehouse operatives, and technicians who need to remain agile. The adjustable hem allows for a customisable fit, sealing out drafts on colder days. One of the standout features for mobile workforces is the vest's packability; it can be stowed neatly into its own internal pocket, transforming into a compact travel pillow—a thoughtful detail for staff undertaking long journeys. The integrated audio system and internal pockets keep essential devices secure and accessible, ensuring that communication lines remain open. By combining lightweight comfort with practical utility, this vest ensures that your workforce remains focused on the task at hand, rather than the elements.

Ideal Workplace Applications

• Logistics and warehousing staff requiring arm mobility.
• Corporate event teams needing smart, branded layering.
• Field sales representatives requiring warmth during travel.
