Engineered for Performance

The Stormtech Women's Nautilus Performance Shell is a masterclass in versatile outerwear engineering, specifically designed to handle the unpredictable nature of British weather without compromising on mobility or corporate aesthetic. At its core, this garment features a sophisticated D/W/R (Durable Water Repellent) outer shell, further enhanced with a PFC-free finish. This combination ensures that rain beads off the surface immediately, keeping the wearer dry during sudden downpours while adhering to modern environmental standards. Weighing in at a featherlight 78gsm, it avoids the bulk associated with traditional workwear, making it an excellent choice for active roles where agility is paramount. The technical construction includes a vented back yoke, which acts as a passive climate control system, allowing excess heat and moisture to escape from the core during periods of high exertion. This breathability is crucial for preventing the 'boil-in-the-bag' effect common in lesser waterproofs. Furthermore, the jacket is designed to integrate seamlessly with other Waterproofs in your inventory, providing a reliable outer shield that packs away into its own pocket when the sun breaks through.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Designed with the female workforce in mind, this performance shell offers a tailored silhouette that provides a professional appearance without restricting movement. The comfort factor is significantly elevated by the stowable hood, which offers on-demand protection but can be neatly tucked away to maintain a clean collar line when not in use. For staff members who spend long shifts moving between indoor and outdoor environments—such as logistics coordinators, event staff, or field sales representatives—the lightweight nature of the fabric reduces fatigue. The reflective trim on the shoulder is a thoughtful addition for safety, enhancing visibility during early morning starts or late shifts in low-light conditions. Durability is woven into the polyester pongee fabric, ensuring it withstands the rigours of daily wear and repeated washing cycles. The ability to pack the jacket into its own pocket makes it an indispensable tool for mobile teams, easily stored in a glovebox or kit bag until needed, ensuring your staff remain compliant and comfortable regardless of the forecast.

Ideal Workplace Applications

• Event management and outdoor hospitality staff requiring adaptable layers.
• Logistics and delivery drivers needing stowable weather protection.
• Corporate field teams requiring a smart, branded outer layer.
