Result, customizable outerwear

Result, the outerwear designed for branding

Result is a British brand specialised in outerwear for customisation. It was founded in 1994, when a small team with twenty years of experience in garment making launched its first ten stock models, based on its bespoke patterns. Each model is tested with the wearer and the marker: openings in the lining provide access to the embroidery panels, so the needle doesn't go through all the layers. The brand also offers a range made from recycled fibres, Genuine Recycled, for clubs and schools conscious of the source of their textiles.

Other brands for customisation

Customisable textiles are available by brand:

• Sol's, t-shirts, sweats and polos.
• Kariban.
• Proact, sports textiles.
• K-up, caps and beanies.
• Kimood, bags and accessories.
• Yoko, high visibility.

All brands are gathered on the customisable textiles and accessories page.

Softshell, fleece or parka: which protection

The softshell combines a stretchy outer fabric, a windproof membrane, and a microfleece lining: it blocks wind, resists light rain, and breathes during exertion, making it the typical jacket for educators on the sidelines. The fleece, lighter, insulates in dry and cold weather but lets air through once the wind picks up; it can be worn alone in autumn or as a mid-layer. The lined parka, with sealed seams and a hood, remains the only one truly suited for long hours in the rain, whether on a touchline or during a winter school trip.

Embroidery or transfer: marking without damaging the jacket

On a softshell or fleece, embroidery provides a raised effect that withstands dozens of washes; it is suitable for logos of a few colours placed on the chest or back. The heat-pressed transfer reproduces gradients and small text, like the name of an educator or each person's role. On a waterproof jacket, embroidery perforates the membrane: a transfer is preferred, or limited embroidery to an area protected by the lining. Before launching a series, a first sample is validated to check the logo's size, its colour on the fabric, and its durability after washing.

Good deals

Good deals can also be found in the good deals, promotions, clearance, sales, and Black Friday. The new arrivals showcase the latest collections, and items shipped in 24h are prepared and sent within 24 hours. The key events of the year follow a steady order: the Black Friday at the end of autumn, the end-of-year holidays, the winter sales, the French Days in spring, then the summer sales and back-to-school season.

Frequently asked questions

How to order sizes for an entire team of staff?

Note down each person's usual size, then compare it to the size guide on the sheet, as a fitted softshell and a loose parka may not fit the same way. Ordering one or two extra pieces in common sizes avoids the need for a new series for a new arrival.

Is a softshell jacket waterproof?

A softshell is water-repellent, not waterproof: it repels light rain and short showers but eventually allows water in during prolonged rain. To stay outside for hours in bad weather, a parka with sealed seams is more suitable.

How to wash a marked jacket without damaging the logo?

Turn the jacket inside out, close the zips, and wash at thirty degrees with a mild detergent, avoiding fabric softener which alters the membrane and detaches transfers. No tumble drying or ironing on the marking: let it dry on a hanger.

What colour jacket should be chosen for a club?

Start with the club's main colour, but a dark shade, navy or black, shows less dirt and highlights a light logo. A bright colour can be spotted from a distance, which is useful for identifying the staff during a tournament or outing.

What is a jacket made from recycled polyester?

Its fabric is made from recycled fibres, often sourced from plastic bottles, then woven like classic polyester. It offers the same protection against wind and cold and can be personalised in the same way through embroidery or transfer.
