Padded jackets and bodywarmers add an insulating layer in colder weather, but suitability for particular conditions depends on the individual garment. A jacket also covers the arms, while a bodywarmer leaves them freer to move and is easy to combine with other clothing.
When choosing garments for a company or team, compare fit, intended layering, sizes and details that matter in everyday use. Current products include padded jackets, including lighter and women’s styles, as well as quilted and padded bodywarmers. If you plan to add a logo, check whether the material and proposed placement are suitable.

Jacket or bodywarmer?
Quilting alone does not tell you how warm or weather-resistant a garment will be. Consider whether you need it for brief periods outdoors, work in cooler indoor spaces or a range of activities. Check the actual properties of each model.
Padded jackets
A jacket covers the arms as well, making it a sensible option when you want more coverage for the upper body. Current examples include the Stedman Lux Woman padded jacket and the StanleyStella Bomber 2.0 lightweight padded jacket. Compare fit and intended use rather than relying on the name alone.
Quilted and padded bodywarmers
A bodywarmer keeps the arms free and can be worn over a thinner or thicker layer when its fit allows. For comparison, see the Kariban K6162 quilted bodywarmer. Check chest room, arm openings and comfort when bending or reaching.
How to choose garments for a company or team
Similar colours alone do not ensure a coordinated result. It also matters how the selected styles suit the work being done and the clothing people will wear underneath.
- Layering: allow for the T-shirt, sweatshirt or fleece that will be worn underneath when selecting sizes.
- Fit: check the size range and measurement chart for each garment; size labels are not necessarily consistent across brands.
- Details: check the product description for pockets, fastenings, collar and any hood if these features matter for the intended use.
Planning logo personalisation
Quilted seams, lining and padding can affect where a logo can be placed. Printing or embroidery must be assessed for the specific garment, material, design and position. Gajcom can help review the artwork and agree on size, placement and an appropriate method; the details are confirmed for each order.
For different protection or ways of wearing outerwear, also compare softshell jackets and raincoats and ponchos. Check the stated properties of each individual product.
Frequently asked questions
Is every quilted garment suitable for rain?
No. Quilting does not establish waterproof performance or sealed seams. If the garment will frequently be exposed to rainfall, look for explicit information about rain protection on the specific product.
How should we choose sizes for a group?
Use the wearers’ measurements, the size chart for each model and the thickness of any clothing to be worn underneath. The same size label does not guarantee the same fit across manufacturers.
Can we add a logo to a jacket or bodywarmer?
Personalisation is possible on suitable models. The method and placement depend on the material, garment construction and artwork; the options need to be checked before an order is confirmed.
What information is needed for a quotation?
Specify the selected models, estimated quantity, sizes, preferred logo placement and artwork file. These details help assess the feasibility of personalisation and the scope of the specific order.
