BASELAYERS AND MIDLAYERS EXPLAINED: PART II:
THE PERFECT ANSWER TO STAYING WARM, THIS SEASON
In this latest phase of our Outerwear campaign, designed to help you focus your promotional efforts and step up your sales, we’re exploring the essential role of midlayers. This hugely flexible category is best described as an item of clothing that can be worn alone, over another layer or under a layer, to keep the wearer warm … think knitwear, sweatshirts and hoodies. Hugely versatile, and a go-to item for times of seasonal change, midlayers are designed to trap heat whilst looking stylish, whatever the weather.

THE TECHNICAL DEFINITION
When it comes to layers, there are typically three main aspects to think about. The first, baselayers, are worn next to the skin to create warmth and trap moisture – you can read more about baselayers in Part 1 of our explainer blog, here. Midlayers are worn for insulation and warmth, with the outer layer for protection from the elements. ‘Midlayer’ applies to a whole range of garments, all with two things in common – comfort and versatility! These layers are designed keep you warm whilst still being breathable enough to let moisture escape, so you’re not left feeling clammy or cold. They offer a good level of protection from the elements but aren’t often designed to be waterproof.

DESIGNED FOR OUTDOORS, INDOORS AND TRAVEL
As one of the most versatile categories of outerwear, midlayers are the all-rounder of clothing. When fit is important, knitwear and hoodies, especially zip-up styles, are available to fit a range of body shapes and sizes. For cosiness, fleece-lined jackets and sweatshirts offer exceptional comfort when wearing; and, for ultimate coverage, hoodies are available in a range of styles, lengths and fits.
Perfect in any environment, from the corporate workplace to the sports field, midlayers can be dressed up or down to suit the needs of the wearer, offering a balance of style and practicality that can easily be integrated into any wardrobe.
KNITWEAR
Nothing says autumn like a good knitted sweater and we’ve got you covered. From a luxury fine gauge, cotton-rich yarn design, such as the Premier v-neck, to the everyday wearability of the Asquith and Fox cotton blend sweater, the durability of the Henbury range or elegance of the Nimbus 1/4-zip knit, there’s a sweater for every setting, whether casual or more formal. With huge appeal across a range of industries, including being ideally suited for corporate uniforms, this range is ideal worn as is or with classic embroidery decoration with a brand, slogan or corporate logo.
HOODIES
From classic, functional styles to those with attitude, this category has exploded in popularity in recent years. AWDis Just Hoods signature hoodies are made from heavy fabric with an oversized fit and front pockets, whilst the Build Your Brand heavy hoodie has an adjustable hood and wide ribbing. For that luxury feel, the Anthem men’s hoodie offers high levels of comfort in sizes up to 3XL and is certified organic; or, for the ultimate statement piece which utlises organic materials, the B&C Collection Inspire hoodie is also a great option. Often suited to more casual and leisure markets, our extensive range of hoodies can be dressed up or down and can easily decorated to an exceptional standard with embroidery, DTF and print branding.
SWEATSHIRTS
Whether wearing for work or leisure, sweatshirts are seasonless, flattering and easy to wear. Available in a range of fits and colours, such as the iconic Stanley/Stella crew neck, the ProRTX lightweight sweatshirt, the relaxed AWDis Just Hoods sweatshirt or the recycled TriDri sweatshirt, these garments offer comfort, wearability and classic style. Often sought after as part of a trade work uniform or within the hospitality/leisure sector, this range is highly customisable for most decoration services to bring a brand or corporate identity to life.
