AS Colour Quilted Jacket | 5525

Description

The AS Colour Quilted Jacket sits in a category most blank apparel brands ignore — lightweight outerwear that actually holds decoration well. The diamond-quilted shell creates defined panels that accept embroidery without distortion, and the recycled polyester fill adds just enough warmth for transitional seasons without the bulk that makes layering awkward. This is the jacket that ends up as the unofficial uniform — the one staff actually wear off-shift.

Who Orders It

Breweries and taprooms building staff outerwear that works indoors and on the patio. Surf and outdoor brands adding a layering piece to their merch line. Corporate teams replacing generic fleece with something their employees will actually claim. Nonprofits creating donor gift items with real perceived value. Boutique hotels and hospitality groups outfitting front-of-house staff for cooler months. Music venues and event production teams needing crew jackets that read professional on camera.

Decoration

Left chest embroidery is the natural placement — the quilted panels provide stable backing without requiring additional stabilization on most designs under 8,000 stitches. Back yoke placement works for larger logos but may need light stabilizer depending on design density. The shell fabric accepts heat transfer well for multi-color artwork, though embroidery remains the premium choice for outerwear. Avoid heavy-stitch designs directly over seam intersections where quilting meets.

Common Questions

What decoration method works best on quilted jackets?
Embroidery is the standard for outerwear like this. The quilted panels hold stitching cleanly, and the finished look reads as premium. Heat transfer works for complex multi-color logos but embroidery outlasts it through years of washing.

Is this warm enough for outdoor events?
It’s a transitional weight — think 50–65°F range as a standalone, or layered under a shell in colder conditions. Not a winter jacket, but ideal for brewery patios, coastal climates, and indoor/outdoor hospitality environments.

How does the sizing run?
True to size with a regular fit. Most buyers order their standard jacket size. If layering over heavy fleece or hoodies, consider sizing up.
