Product Information

Full details

The Portwest Print & Promo Softshell Jacket is designed for adults seeking a versatile and durable outer layer, especially for corporate environments. Its key benefit is its suitability for custom printing and embroidery, making it ideal for branding, while its windproof and water-resistant fabric offers protection against the elements. A potential caveat is that while water-resistant, it is not fully waterproof, so prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to moisture penetration.

FAQs

What makes this jacket ideal for corporate wear?

It's designed with a smooth exterior fabric that is excellent for over printing and embroidery, allowing for easy customization with company logos and branding.

How warm is this jacket?

The jacket features a micro polar fleece lining and a fleece-backed interior, providing good warmth for moderate conditions.

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

No, the jacket is water-resistant, meaning it can repel water and keep you dry in light rain or showers. It is not designed for heavy or prolonged downpours.

What is the fabric composition?

The shell is made of 96% Polyester and 4% Elastane, bonded to a 100% Polyester Fleece lining. The total weight is 280g.

How many pockets does it have?

It has two lower external front zip-secure pockets and two internal pockets for secure storage.

Can I machine wash and tumble dry this jacket?

Yes, you can machine wash it at 40°C and tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid bleach and dry cleaning.

What does 'mechanical stretch' mean for comfort?

Mechanical stretch refers to the fabric's ability to stretch and recover without the use of elastane throughout the entire fabric. This allows for greater freedom of movement during activity.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth of the zipper and work it back and forth gently.

Water is penetrating the fabric

The jacket is water-resistant, not waterproof. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, consider a waterproof outer layer. The water-repellent finish may also diminish over time with wear and washing; consider re-applying a suitable fabric protector spray designed for outdoor wear.

Fleece lining feels less soft after washing

Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the water-resistant properties and affect the bonding of the shell and fleece. Tumble dry on low heat to help restore softness.

Custom print or embroidery is peeling or damaged

Ensure washing and ironing instructions are followed carefully. Avoid high heat during washing, drying, and ironing, and do not dry clean. Consult the provider of the custom finish for specific care advice.
