Engineered for Performance

The Craghoppers Richmond Stretch Workwear Jacket is a formidable piece of industrial clothing, meticulously designed for the most demanding work environments. Boasting a substantial 830gsm weight, this jacket is built to withstand abrasion and harsh conditions, yet it integrates sophisticated fabric technology to maintain performance. It meets the rigorous EN343-3.3 standard, certifying top-tier waterproof and breathable capabilities. The outer shell is crafted from a recycled polyester stretch ripstop fabric treated with H2OShield DWR (Durable Water Repellent), which effectively beads water away from the surface, preventing saturation. Beneath this tough exterior lies an AquaDry Membrane that ensures complete weather protection while allowing internal moisture to escape. The inclusion of recycled zip tapes and GRS-certified fabrics underscores a commitment to sustainability without sacrificing industrial strength. For professionals in construction or engineering, the durability of the ripstop weave means resistance to tears and snags is significantly enhanced. By choosing this jacket, you are equipping your team with a garment that rivals high-end technical jackets, ensuring they remain dry, safe, and operational regardless of the forecast.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Comfort in a workwear context translates directly to productivity, and the Richmond jacket excels in this regard through its 'high-reach' design. Unlike rigid traditional work coats, this garment incorporates elastane stretch mesh and a mechanical stretch fabric that allows for a full range of motion—essential for workers reaching overhead, operating machinery, or climbing ladders. To combat the overheating that often occurs during strenuous labour, the jacket features pit zips, allowing for rapid ventilation and temperature regulation. The interior is lined with recycled polyester taffeta for a smooth glide over base layers, preventing bunching. Odour-control patches are strategically placed to maintain freshness during long shifts, a thoughtful addition for team environments. The fit is adjustable and ergonomic, designed to sit comfortably over a uniform while providing ample coverage. With a focus on the user experience, this jacket transforms necessary PPE into a garment that employees will actively want to wear, reducing compliance issues and enhancing overall job satisfaction.
