RG154 Flux Softshell Bodywarmer – Regatta Professional

The Regatta Professional RG154 Flux Softshell Bodywarmer is a lightweight, versatile gilet designed to provide an extra layer of warmth and protection without restricting movement.

Made from a 270gsm warm-backed woven stretch softshell fabric, the Flux combines a soft, comfortable handle with natural stretch for ease of movement. The fabric is wind-resistant, water-repellent and quick drying, making it particularly useful for employees who work both indoors and outdoors or need an adaptable additional layer throughout the working day.

The two-layer softshell construction features a 96% polyester / 4% elastane outer, with a polyester fleece backing providing additional warmth and comfort. The outer fabric also incorporates recycled polyester content, with Regatta stating that the outer layer is made from at least 50% recycled polyester.

The RG154 has a practical three-pocket design, with two zipped lower pockets and a zipped chest pocket providing secure storage for everyday essentials. An adjustable shock-cord hem allows the wearer to fine-tune the fit and helps reduce cold air entering underneath the garment.

The bodywarmer is finished with front and back yokes, a full-length covered zip and a cut-out label, making it a clean and practical base for professional company branding. Regatta lists the garment as suitable for embroidery, screen printing, DTF printing and vinyl decoration.

Available in All Black, Navy/Navy, Seal Grey/Seal Grey and Classic Red/Seal Grey, with men's sizes from XS to 4XL, the RG154 is an excellent option for corporate uniforms, hospitality, outdoor service teams, sales staff, facilities management and general workwear.

Why Choose the RG154?

Warm-Backed Softshell

The Flux uses a warm-backed woven stretch softshell fabric, giving it more warmth than a lightweight unlined gilet while keeping the garment relatively easy to wear.

270gsm Construction

At 270gsm, the RG154 offers a useful balance between warmth and weight.

It is substantial enough to provide an additional layer in cooler conditions without becoming a bulky outer garment.

Natural Stretch

The woven softshell incorporates 4% elastane, providing natural stretch that helps the bodywarmer move comfortably with the wearer.

This is particularly useful for employees who are regularly moving between vehicles, offices, warehouses, sites or outdoor working areas.

Wind Resistant

The softshell fabric is designed to provide wind resistance, making it useful as an additional layer in exposed outdoor conditions.

Water-Repellent Finish

The outer fabric has a durable water-repellent finish, helping light rain and showers bead away from the surface.

It should not, however, be confused with a waterproof jacket.

Quick Drying

The fabric is quick drying, making the RG154 practical for employees who may encounter light showers or changing weather during the working day.

Super Soft Handle

The fabric has a super-soft handle, making it comfortable to wear over a polo shirt, T-shirt or other uniform layer.

Three Zipped Pockets

The RG154 provides two zipped lower pockets and one zipped chest pocket, giving the wearer useful secure storage for keys, phones and other everyday items.

Adjustable Shock-cord Hem

The adjustable shock-cord hem allows the wearer to alter the fit around the bottom of the bodywarmer and can help reduce drafts.

Lightweight and Easy to Wear

Despite its warm-backed construction, the RG154 is designed to remain lightweight and easy to wear, making it particularly suitable for employees who need a flexible additional layer rather than a heavy winter coat.

Recycled Polyester Content

The outer layer is made from at least 50% recycled polyester, supporting businesses looking to make more considered choices around the materials used in their uniforms.

Regatta's wider sustainability programme is targeting 70% recycled polyester across its polyester fabrics by 2030.

Suitable for Professional Branding

The RG154 is suitable for embroidery, screen printing, DTF printing and vinyl decoration according to Regatta Professional.

For most corporate and workwear applications, however, I would recommend left-chest embroidery as the first choice. It complements the clean styling of the bodywarmer and gives a durable professional finish.
