The Only Gilet You’ll Need This Season: Meet the New Multi-Purpose Active Gilet

From clocking up miles on foot to riding into the sunrise, our brand-new Multi-purpose Reflective Active Gilet is designed to move with you. In this blog post, we'll discuss why the new Active Gilet is the only reflective sportswear you'll need for all your summer adventures. Built with lightweight, breathable, and windproof fabric, it’s the versatile layer you’ll rely on again and again this spring and summer.

Available in Men’s and Women’s styles, and three colours to choose from, the gilet features our signature Proviz Reflect360 Material for added visibility, plus thoughtful details like zip pockets, stretch panels, and a comfortable athletic fit.

Our team put them to the test and here’s how it performed across your favourite outdoor pursuits:

For Running: Lightweight, Breathable, and Built for Speed

Spring runs can start with a chill and end in the sun. The Proviz Active Gilet offers the perfect in-between layer—blocking wind without overheating and moving freely with your stride.

Its breathable, four-way stretch fabric is ideal for runners who want comfort without bulk. Two zip pockets keep your essentials safe, and the reflective detailing ensures you’re seen on early-morning routes or twilight training runs.

Our model Ben is currently training for a half marathon and found the lightweight design particularly helpful for staying visible on warm summer nights whilst clocking in those miles.
