As the leaves turn and the days get shorter, it’s the perfect time for businesses to refresh their team’s workwear. Autumn 2025 brings a host of new trends in branded clothing—blending style, comfort, and practicality for staff across manufacturing, retail, trades, and corporate sectors. Here’s our guide to what’s trending this season and how your business can stand out.
1. Layering for Versatility
With unpredictable British weather, layering is a must. This year’s workwear collections feature:
-
Softshell jackets—lightweight, water-resistant, and perfect for branding
-
Fleece-lined hoodies—for warmth without bulk
-
Bodywarmers and gilets—ideal for outdoor teams and events
2. Hi-Vis with a Modern Twist
Safety is always in style, but 2025’s hi-vis workwear goes beyond the basics:
-
Contemporary fits—streamlined silhouettes for comfort and professionalism
-
Colour pops—contrasting trims and panels for a fresh look
-
Eco-friendly options—more recycled fabrics available for hi-vis and PPE
3. Personalisation and Branding
Custom embroidery and DTF printing remain top choices for businesses wanting to make a statement. This autumn, trends include:
-
3D embroidery for logos—adds texture and a premium feel
-
Bold placements—sleeve, back, and even collar branding
-
Seasonal specials—limited-edition autumn colourways and designs
4. Comfort Meets Durability
Staff want workwear that feels as good as it looks. Popular choices this autumn:
-
Cotton-rich blends—soft, breathable, and hard-wearing
-
Stretch fabrics—for freedom of movement on the job
-
Easy-care finishes—less ironing, more time on site
5. Bulk Discounts and No Minimum Orders
With teams scaling up for the busy season, businesses benefit from bulk discounts (5% for 100+, 10% for 250+, 15% for 500+ items) and the flexibility of no minimum order quantities—making it easy to kit out everyone, from new starters to long-standing staff.
