Women's Fleeces & Gilets

Women’s fleeces and gilets for comfortable layering

A fleece or gilet is an easy layer to reach for when the weather turns cool. Women’s fleeces provide warmth across the body and arms, while a gilet keeps your core warm and leaves your arms free for walking, riding or working outdoors. Wear one over a shirt or base layer, or layer it under a waterproof coat in colder, changeable weather.

Full-zip fleeces

Full-zip fleeces are easy to put on and take off, making them useful for changing temperatures and active days outside. Choose a lighter fleece for everyday layering or a warmer style for cold country walks. Browse women’s full-zip fleeces.

Fleece gilets

Fleece gilets add soft, lightweight warmth without restricting movement through the arms. They work well over shirts, knitwear and base layers and can be worn on their own or beneath a coat. Explore women’s fleece gilets.

Country and technical gilets

Country and technical gilets include practical insulated, softshell and performance styles designed for comfortable layering outdoors. Consider the warmth, weather protection and pockets you need for your usual activities. See women’s country and technical gilets.

Quarter-zips and pullovers

Quarter-zip fleeces and pullovers are versatile midlayers for walking, riding and everyday wear. The zip lets you adjust ventilation, and the simple shape is easy to pair with jeans, leggings or country trousers. Browse women’s quarter-zips and pullovers.

Choosing a women’s fleece or gilet

Think about how you plan to wear your layer and how much warmth you need. A fleece gives all-round coverage, while a gilet is a useful option when you want core warmth and freedom through the arms. Check each product page for the fit, fabric, care instructions and sizing, as these can vary between brands and styles.
