How to style a sherpa vest

With leggings

A sherpa vest over high-waisted leggings is the cold morning outfit that needs no thought. The longline fit covers your bum so you stay warm top to bottom. Reach for the In Motion Pocket 7/8 Legging for everyday wear or the In Tempo Run Ankle Legging when training is on your agenda.

With your favourite pants

Not just for leggings. A sherpa vest over the Pleated Tailored Trouser is an easy, polished look for workdays and travel. Or keep things relaxed with the Venture Pant and In Motion Pocket Flare Pant. Browse the full pants collection for lots of options.

With knit tops

On the coldest days, start with a knit top and add the sherpa vest on top. Two cosy layers that sit neatly together, with the longline vest adding core warmth right where you need it most.

What is sherpa fabric?

Sherpa is a soft synthetic fleece designed to feel like sheepskin. It works by trapping air within the fabric to retain heat, which is why it stays warm without feeling heavy. The result is a lightweight layer that insulates well and softens with wear.

FAQ

What is a sherpa vest?

A sherpa vest is a sleeveless fleece layer made for the days that sit between seasons. Core warmth, water-repellent finish and a relaxed longline fit that covers your bum. Deep hand pockets and an easy silhouette that works over almost anything. More versatile than you'd expect from a single layer.

How do you style a sherpa vest?

Over leggings for training, your favourite pants for everyday wear or straight over a sports bra for warm-ups. The longline fit does most of the styling work for you. When it's really cold, a knit top underneath turns it into a two-layer outfit that keeps you warm without the bulk of a jacket.

What do you wear under a sherpa vest?

Anything, really. A sports bra as your warming-up, a fitted knit top for extra insulation on cold days or a long sleeve for in-between weather. The sherpa’s relaxed fit means it sits comfortably over most tops without bunching or pulling.

Is a sherpa vest warm enough for winter?

Yes, with the right layers underneath. Sherpa fleece provides solid core warmth for mild to cool conditions, and the water-repellent finish handles unpredictable weather. When it's really cold, a knit top underneath makes all the difference. For a full-sleeve option, our sherpa jackets are the next step up.
