Product Information
Full details
The Jobman Hi-Vis Soft Shell Jacket is an ideal choice for outdoor professionals and construction workers who require high visibility without sacrificing mobility or protection. This durable, OEKOTEX-certified garment excels in harsh environments by offering an 8000mm waterproof rating and high breathability, though it is primarily designed for high-visibility tasks and may be heavier than lighter recreational soft-shell alternatives.

FAQs
Is this jacket machine washable?
Yes, it is machine washable. We recommend using a mild detergent and skipping fabric softeners to protect the water-repellent finish.
Does the hood detach?
Yes, the jacket features a fully detachable drawstring hood for versatility in different weather conditions.
What does OEKOTEX certification mean?
It means the textile has been tested for harmful substances and is confirmed to be environmentally and human-health safe.
Can I wear this in extreme sub-zero temperatures?
The jacket provides excellent wind and water protection, but it is a soft shell. In extreme cold, it is recommended to wear thermal base layers underneath.
How do I adjust the fit?
You can tighten the cuffs using the touch-fastening tabs and adjust the waist using the elasticated toggle hem.
Troubleshooting
Water is no longer beading off the surface
The DWR finish may have worn off through friction or washing. Apply a technical DWR revitalizing spray to the outer shell.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to close
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. If it continues to stick, use a dry silicone lubricant to smooth the motion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the high-performance properties of your Jobman jacket, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: Machine wash with mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can degrade the DWR coating and breathability.
- Drying: Hang dry or tumble dry on a low, gentle setting to avoid damaging the waterproof membrane.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure the garment is completely dry before long-term storage to prevent mold or fabric degradation.
- Maintenance: If the water-beading effect (DWR) diminishes over time, apply a specialized DWR-restoring spray designed for technical workwear.
