What Is a Fleece Gilet?
A fleece gilet (sometimes called a body warmer) is a sleeveless fleece that zips or buttons up the front. It sits over a base layer or shirt and insulates your core while leaving your arms completely free - ideal for anyone working with their hands, from farm and kennel work to DIY around the yard. Because there are no sleeves to catch on gates, machinery or dog leads, a men's fleece gilet or women's fleece gilet is a favourite for country and working wardrobes alike.
