Engineered for Performance

The TS009 Hooded 2-Layer Softshell Jacket is a masterclass in modern fabric engineering, designed to bridge the gap between lightweight mid-layers and heavy-duty outerwear. Constructed from a sophisticated 2-layer bonded fabric, this garment fuses a durable, woven polyester outer shell with a soft, insulating inner layer. This bonding process creates a textile that is not only robust against abrasion but also highly effective at regulating body temperature. The inclusion of 2% elastane in the outer layer is a critical technical detail; it provides necessary mechanical stretch, ensuring that the fabric moves with the wearer rather than restricting them. While the fabric is engineered to be showerproof and windproof—making it an excellent shield against unpredictable British weather—those facing torrential conditions for extended periods might consider layering this under heavy-duty waterproofs for ultimate protection. The storm flap and chin guard offer additional barriers against the elements, preventing cold draughts from penetrating the zip line, ensuring your team remains focused and efficient regardless of the forecast.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Beyond its technical resilience, this softshell is designed with the daily comfort of the workforce in mind. The raglan sleeve construction is a specific ergonomic choice that eliminates the shoulder seam, thereby reducing friction and chafing points—particularly beneficial for staff who wear backpacks or carry equipment straps throughout their shift. The shaped fit offers a professional silhouette that looks smart in front of clients while avoiding the boxy, restrictive feel of traditional work jackets. Adjustable toggles at the hood and inner hem allow employees to customise the fit to their specific preference, sealing in warmth when temperatures drop. The elasticated cuffs further aid in heat retention and prevent sleeves from interfering with manual tasks. With two front zipped pockets and two substantial inside pockets, there is ample storage for devices, keys, and tools, allowing for a hands-free working environment. This jacket is an operational asset that employees will genuinely appreciate wearing for the duration of an 8-hour shift.

Ideal Workplace Applications

• Logistics and Delivery Drivers requiring movement and warmth.
• Site Surveyors and Architects needing a smart, weather-resistant layer.
• Corporate Event Staff requiring a unified, professional appearance.

Corporate Branding & Compatibility

This garment is optimised for customisation, featuring a two-layer bonded surface that provides a smooth, stable base for high-quality embroidery or print. The lack of a branded neck label simplifies the rebranding process. For a complete corporate look, you can coordinate with Polo Shirts to maintain brand consistency across all layers.
