Product Information

Full details

The Mascot Advanced Thermal Jacket is designed for adult men seeking a lightweight yet warm outerwear solution for wet and cool conditions. Its key benefit lies in the CLIMASCOT® insulation, offering warmth without bulk, and its water-repellent finish to keep you dry. A potential caveat is its suitability primarily as an outer or mid-layer, as it's not designed for extreme cold on its own. This jacket features a two-toned design, high collar, multiple zip pockets, and ergonomic shaping for comfort and freedom of movement, making it a practical choice for various work environments.

FAQs

What is CLIMASCOT® insulation?

CLIMASCOT® is a lightweight, soft insulation material used in the jacket that provides warmth without adding bulk, making it ideal for layering or for use in milder weather.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket has a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light rain and damp conditions. It is not waterproof and may not provide adequate protection during prolonged heavy rainfall.

How should I wash the jacket?

You can machine wash the jacket with coloureds at 40°C. Avoid bleaching, tumble drying, and ironing to preserve its material and properties.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

The jacket provides warmth without bulk and is excellent as a mid-layer. For very cold temperatures, it is recommended to layer it with warmer garments underneath or wear a heavier, insulated coat over it.

What are the benefits of the ergonomic sleeve design?

The ergonomically shaped sleeves are designed to allow for a high degree of freedom of movement, making it easier to perform tasks without restriction.

How do I adjust the fit of the jacket?

The jacket features an adjustable elastic drawstring at the waist and an adjustable drawstring on the high collar, allowing you to customize the fit for comfort and to seal out drafts.

Do the reflectors serve a purpose?

Yes, the reflective elements are designed to increase your visibility in low-light conditions, enhancing safety when working outdoors or near traffic.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels bulky

The CLIMASCOT® insulation is designed to be lightweight. Ensure you are not wearing excessively thick layers underneath that might counteract the jacket's slim profile.

Water is soaking through

The jacket is water-repellent, not waterproof. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, a dedicated waterproof jacket is recommended. Check care instructions to ensure water-repellent treatment hasn't degraded and consider re-applying a suitable treatment if necessary.

Zipper is difficult to move

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If the issue persists, check the zipper teeth for damage.

Reduced freedom of movement

Verify that the stretch fabric panels at the sides are not obstructed and that the adjustable waist drawstring is not overly tightened. Ensure you are wearing the correct size.
