Fleeces & Softshells for Work: Our Top Picks for 2026
Last reviewed: 17 August 2026 · Written and reviewed by the Xcel Print & Promotions team
Every week we help businesses across the UK pick out Fleeces & Softshells for their teams. Some want premium. Some want value. Most want something in the middle that they can brand up and won’t have to bin every few months. Here’s where we’d point you.
The Case for Decent Fleeces & Softshells
Then there’s durability. Cheap Fleeces & Softshells save you a few quid on day one, sure. But once you’re replacing them every couple of months and re-embroidering the logo each time, that saving vanishes fast. Everything we recommend is built to take regular washing and daily wear.
Right then. With 274+ styles in our Fleeces & Softshells range, you’re not short of choice. We work with brands like Portwest, Uneek, Fruit of the Loom, and Russell, all tried and tested by thousands of UK businesses. And with no minimum order, you can start small and build up.
Fleeces & Softshells We Rate Highly This Year
Here’s what we’d steer you towards. Different teams need different things, so have a look at what suits your situation:
1. 2786 Full Zip Fleece (from £14.99)
This one keeps landing in orders, and for good reason. From £14.99, it’s made for proper daily wear, not the sort that gives up after a few washes. The fabric weight is spot on for embroidery and the colour range means you’ll find something to match your brand.
2. Result R36X Polartherm™ Jacket (from £13.88)
The Result R36X Polartherm™ Jacket just works. Nothing flashy about it. Just a well-made fleece your team will actually reach for. We’ve had repeat orders from companies who started with 5 and came back for 50.
3. Stormtech FPX-2W Women’s Yosemite 1/2 Zip Pullover (from £62.99)
We shift a lot of these, and there’s a reason. The Stormtech FPX-2W Women’s Yosemite 1/2 Zip Pullover ticks the boxes most teams care about. Comfortable through a long shift, holds its shape in the wash, takes embroidery really well. If you want a fleece that won’t let you down, this is a solid pick.
4. Regatta RG139 Ladies Micro Full Zip Fleece (from £19.99)
Another that keeps landing in orders. From £19.99, it’s built for proper daily wear, not the kind that falls apart after a few washes. The fabric weight suits embroidery and the colour range means you’ll find something to fit your brand.
Picking the Right Fleeces & Softshells for Your Team
Getting Your Logo on There
Everything on this page can be branded with your company logo. We always send a free design proof before we go ahead, so you see exactly how it’ll look. Nothing gets made until you give the thumbs up.
Sizes and Fit
We stock inclusive sizes across the board. Brands do fit slightly differently though, so if you’re ordering a mix, keep that in mind. Our team can advise if you’re not sure.
Making Your Budget Work Harder
Here’s what we tell every customer: buy the best you can afford. Cheap workwear costs you more down the line in replacements and re-embroidery. But you don’t need to splash out either, the mid-range options on this list punch well above their weight.
Browse the Full Range
Everything here is just a slice of our Fleeces & Softshells range. We stock over 274 styles from trusted brands, all ready for embroidery and printing with your logo. No minimum order, free design proofs, and we usually dispatch within 5-7 working days.
Common Questions
Can I get Fleeces & Softshells embroidered with my logo?
Yes, that’s our bread and butter. Every product in the range can be embroidered or printed with your company logo. We’ll send a free proof before we start, and there’s no minimum order.
How long does delivery take?
For embroidered or printed Fleeces & Softshells, standard turnaround is 5-7 working days. We can sometimes go faster if you’re in a rush, so just say when you get in touch.
Do you supply women’s fit Fleeces & Softshells?
We do. Most ranges cover women’s, men’s, and unisex fits. And the women’s cuts are properly tailored, not just shrunk-down men’s versions. They’re cut to fit well and look professional.
