Product Information

Full details

The Mascot Advanced Thermal Jacket is designed for adult males seeking a lightweight yet warm outerwear option for work or everyday wear. Its key benefit is the CLIMascot Thermal Insulation, providing warmth without bulk, combined with water-repellent properties for protection against light rain. A potential caveat is that it's primarily designed as a middle layer and may not be sufficient for extreme cold as a standalone piece.

FAQs

What is CLIMascot insulation?

CLIMascot is a lightweight insulation material developed by Mascot that provides warmth without adding significant bulk. It is composed of low-density material that works effectively as an insulating middle layer.

Is the jacket fully waterproof?

No, the jacket is water-repellent, meaning it can resist light rain and splashes. It is not designed to be fully waterproof and will not protect against prolonged or heavy downpours.

How should I wash the jacket?

You can machine wash the jacket with colored wash at 40°C. Avoid bleaching, tumble drying, and ironing. Close zippers before washing.

What is the fabric weight?

The fabric weight is 240 g/m².

Can this jacket be worn as an outer layer in winter?

It can be worn as an outer layer in mild winter conditions or as a mid-layer in colder weather. For very cold temperatures, layering with additional insulating garments is recommended.

Are there internal pockets?

Yes, the jacket features inner pockets for additional storage options.

What does 'two-toned' mean for this jacket?

The jacket has a design featuring two distinct colors, typically along seams or panels, giving it a modern and stylish appearance.

Does the jacket have adjustable features?

Yes, it has an adjustable drawstring on the high collar and an adjustable elastic drawstring at the waist for a customized fit.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels too restrictive during movement.

Ensure the jacket is the correct size and that the stretch fabric panels at the sides are properly aligned. Adjust the elastic drawstring at the waist for a better fit without over-tightening.

Water is penetrating the fabric.

The jacket is water-repellent, not waterproof. For heavy rain, a waterproof outer layer is recommended. The water-repellent treatment may also diminish over time; consider re-applying a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment if performance declines.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to operate.

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant can help. Ensure zippers are closed before washing.

Jacket is not warm enough.

This jacket is designed for lightweight warmth and optimal as a mid-layer. For colder conditions, layer it over a thermal base layer or add a heavier insulating layer over the top.

Pros and Cons

  • Water-repellent finish offers protection from light precipitation.
  • Ergonomic design and stretch panels allow for excellent freedom of movement.
  • Multiple zippered pockets offer secure storage.
  • Reflective elements enhance safety in low-light conditions.
  • Adjustable collar and waist ensure a personalized fit.

Cons

  • May not be warm enough for extreme cold as an outer layer.
  • Primarily suited as an insulating middle layer.
  • Limited breathability compared to specialized activewear.
  • Only water-repellent, not fully waterproof.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. Simply unpack and wear.

Compatibility: While designed as workwear, its comfortable fit and stylish two-toned design make it suitable for casual wear. It pairs well with work trousers, jeans, or other casual bottoms. It functions effectively as a middle layer with various outer shells.

Care Instructions: To maintain the jacket's performance and appearance:

  • Washing: Machine wash with colored wash at 40°C.
  • Bleaching: Do not bleach.
  • Drying: Do not tumble dry.
  • Ironing: Do not iron.
  • Material Care: Ensure zippers are closed before washing to prevent snagging. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can reduce the effectiveness of the insulation and water-repellent treatment.
