Introduction to Leisure Jackets
‘Leisurewear’ is the general term given to clothing that people wear casually, for specific leisure activities, or more frequently these days, both, so the term ‘leisure jackets’ refers to any kind of jacket that’s used for those purposes.
When we’re talking about the outdoors, those leisure activities could include things like walking, cycling skiing, hunting, fishing, and mountaineering (for example) the list goes on! But the important thing to remember as a retailer or wholesaler these days is that you don’t need to think in terms of a ski jacket, for instance, as only having one purpose.
People who ski will want to buy them, of course, but as we saw with the trend of gorpcore, lots of today’s fashion fans want clothes that make them look as if they are climbing mountains or hiking across the tundra, even though they might only wear them while walking the dog or buying their groceries. They want the flexibility to wear such clothing in day-to-day situations, so whether they are wearing leisure jackets on a fishing trip or just hanging out with friends, they want their leisure jackets to look good, they want to be protected from the wind and rain, and luckily, we can help!
Types of Leisure Jackets
Leisure jackets come in all shapes and sizes, and we manufacture them for men, women, and children. There are many different types, including:
Hard shell or outer shell jacket: a type of outerwear designed to provide protection against wind, rain, and snow while offering minimal insulation. This type serves as a protective outer layer that shields the wearer from the elements.
Softshell jackets: lightweight with stretchy and breathable fabric that provides a balance between protection and mobility. Unlike hard shells, they prioritize comfort, flexibility, and breathability over absolute weather protection, but they do offer limited wind and rain protection.
Padded coats: insulated and weatherproof leisure jackets that come in different lengths.
Parkas: long, insulated, hooded coats with multiple pockets, and drawstrings designed for cold and wet weather.
Padded vests: like padded coats, but without the arms!
We manufacture these and other types of leisure jackets that offer the wearer stylish protection for a wide variety of outdoor activities, including skiing, snowboarding, hiking, and even hunting.
Leisure Jackets for Men
Speaking of hunting, there are huge numbers of active hunters around the world, and they want to look good when they are stalking through the woods or swapping tales at the Tavern (about the one that got away) just like anyone else! We are sure there are plenty of female hunters out there, but we thought we’d highlight this rather slick-looking men’s hunting leisure jacket:
Its good looks and excellent protection against the elements make it just as useful for the casual rambler as the dedicated hunter.
