Carhartt Black Gilliam Vest

The Carhartt Black Gilliam Vest is the kind of layer that earns its place on the job site every single day. Black is the go-to choice for crews who need a sharp, professional look that still performs when the temperature drops. When the morning is cold enough to demand some core warmth but not quite cold enough for a full jacket, this insulated vest hits the mark every time.

Carhartt built the Gilliam Vest around a water-repellent shell that sheds light moisture without weighing you down. The reverse coil center front zipper opens and closes with gloved hands, a small detail that makes a big difference when temperatures hover near freezing. The zip-through cadet collar seals off drafts without a hood getting in the way of a hard hat or safety helmet.

Storage is where this vest truly works overtime. The left chest map pocket with its reverse coil zipper keeps documents, phones, or small tools right where you can reach them. Two hand pockets with hidden snap closures protect your knuckles from wind. Two interior pockets, one zippered and one hook-and-loop, give you secure spots for wallets, credentials, or anything that cannot afford to fall out on a busy site.

The drawcord adjustable hem lets you dial in the fit when you need extra protection or ease up when you are moving hard. At SWAGHQ, we offer the Carhartt Black Gilliam Vest with embroidered logos and team branding starting at a minimum order of 6 units.

Standard turnaround runs 10 to 14 business days, and every decorated piece is backed by our full decoration guarantee. Construction crews, trade teams, corporate safety programs, and outdoor professionals all turn to this vest because it carries their brand as reliably as it carries their tools.
