Olympa offers two men’s zip jackets with very different personalities. Browse men’s zip jackets.
OlySculpt Vanguard Zip Jacket
The OlySculpt Vanguard Zip Jacket is built for engineered structure and a defined silhouette. Its 90/10 performance blend provides sculpting support with controlled stretch, designed for training, layering and athletic styling.
OlyCore Luxe Zip Jacket
The OlyCore Luxe Zip Jacket is refined and minimal, designed as a premium everyday layer with a clean, structured finish. It comes in Black, Dark Brown and Grey.
Which one?
- For warm-ups and a sharp training look: Vanguard.
- For travel, recovery days and everyday wear: Luxe.
For a softer layer, see the men’s OlyCore Essential Hoodie in Hoodie.
Two jackets, two roles
Think of the Vanguard as your training layer and the Luxe as your everyday layer. The Vanguard’s 90/10 performance blend gives sculpting support with controlled stretch, so it moves with you through warm-ups and mobility work while keeping a sharp, defined line across the shoulders and chest. The Luxe, made from smooth, high-quality polyester, has a clean, minimal look that feels at home at work, on a plane or out for dinner.
How to wear them
- Warm-up layer: Vanguard over the AeroFlex Compression Tank, removed once you are warm.
- Outdoor training: Vanguard over the AeroZip Long Sleeve on cooler mornings.
- Everyday: Luxe over the LuxeFlow Performance Tee with trousers or joggers.
- Travel: Luxe with the Essential Hoodie packed for colder evenings.
Choosing your size
Check the size chart on each product page. The Vanguard is designed to sit close to the body for a structured fit, while the Luxe has a cleaner, relaxed everyday cut.
Care
Close the zip before washing, wash cold and inside out, and hang to dry to keep the fabric smooth and the structure intact.

Colours and styling

Building a layering system
A simple system covers most weather: a performance tee or tank as your base, the AeroZip Long Sleeve as a mid-layer on cold days, and a zip jacket on top. Add the Essential Hoodie for travel and colder evenings. Each layer can be removed as you warm up, so you stay comfortable from your first warm-up set to your last cooldown stretch.
Which to buy first?
If you train most days and want a dedicated gym layer, start with the Vanguard. If you want one jacket for everything else in life, start with the Luxe.
