Gill: The Gear That Goes the Distance — Trusted by T10
At T10, we’re proud to work with the world’s most trusted sailing brands, and Gill sits at the very top of that list. Their relentless pursuit of innovation and performance is what makes them our go-to supplier for technical sailing gear that delivers — no matter how extreme the conditions.
Recently, the Gill product design team welcomed back gear that had been worn by ocean racer Conrad Colman during his journey around the globe in the Vendée Globe — one of the most demanding offshore sailing races on Earth. This isn’t just a routine inspection. Gill’s team is meticulously analysing every detail of the gear’s performance to understand exactly how it held up under the strain of constant saltwater, brutal wind, and freezing temperatures. The insights gained here directly influence the next generation of Gill gear — the same gear you’ll find right here on T10.
Ahead of their upcoming S1.26 Launch in May, Gill has also been putting their latest product samples through another punishing test: a long-distance sailing expedition to the Arctic Circle. Once again, the goal is clear — push the gear to its limits in the world’s toughest environments and use the real-world feedback to refine every stitch, seal, and seam.
When you buy from T10, you’re not just buying high-performance apparel — you’re investing in gear that’s been tested by elite sailors and engineered by specialists who understand exactly what it takes to stay warm, dry, and focused when it matters most.
