The 141/F gilet |
The growth of technical fabrics now used within the imprint industry has driven the start of the soft shell revolution, says distributor UK Leisurewear.
“Mid season 2006, both Result and Regatta released soft shell technology on an unsuspecting UK Leisurewear customer base,” it says. “This meant that by the time the new 2007 UKL brochure hit our customers’ doorsteps they were champing at the bit to see what further products were to be introduced and by whom!
“Soft shell is being heralded as the new wonder fabric. It is essentially a bonded fabric composed of a soft fleece like interior, weatherproof membrane and stretched polyester outer. “The result is a highly water repellent, breathable, windproof fabric that is easy to decorate and machine washes. There are also none of the problems associated with fleece pilling or loss of shape through repeated washing.”
UKL stocks Regatta’s corporatewear collection, including the TRA642 Uproar Interactive Jacket. Drawing on its experience with soft shell in its retail ranges, Regatta’s Uproar features two zipped lower pockets and an adjustable shockcord hem. The jacket is designed to be used as both a lightweight stand alone jacket as well as an interactive liner to Regatta’s Gibson (TRW412), Vertex (TRW420) and the new Titan (TRW440).
There are five strong soft shell styles available from Result – the R120 Activity Jacket; the R121 Classic Soft shell; the R122F in four attractive shades; the R124 Ripstop Jacket; and the R123 bodywarmer – details of which can be found in the Result section of this feature.
Vibrant colour marks out the Jerzees Colour’s contemporary soft shell range, concludes UKL. Six shades including lime, orange and powder blue form the backbone of the collection. Keeping the line and details simple, the 140M/F is a long sleeved soft shell jacket with touch tape wrists, slanted side pockets and a vertical chest pocket.
Complementing the long sleeve jacket is the 141M/F gilet. Retaining the chest pocket feature and slanted side pockets, the 141F has a gentle feminine cut with a straighter more masculine cut for men (141M).
