Engineered for Performance

The Result Workguard Hooded Softshell is a masterclass in modern textile engineering, specifically designed to bridge the gap between heavy-duty waterproofs and breathable mid-layers. At its core lies a sophisticated 3-layer bonded fabric technology comprising a 93% polyester and 7% elastane outer shell, fused to a high-performance TPU membrane. This membrane is the engine room of the garment, providing a substantial hydrostatic head rating of 8000mm, rendering it capable of withstanding heavy, sustained downpours while maintaining a breathability rating of 1000g. This balance is critical for active trade professionals who generate heat but require absolute protection from the British weather. Furthermore, the inclusion of ripstop panelling on high-stress areas such as the shoulders and arms significantly extends the garment's lifecycle, preventing minor snags from becoming structural failures. The windproof nature of the tightly woven outer layer ensures that thermal efficiency is maintained even in exposed sites. For procurement managers sourcing reliable Softshell jackets that perform as well as they look, the R118X offers a technical specification usually reserved for high-end mountaineering gear, adapted for the rigours of the industrial workplace.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Beyond raw protection, this jacket is engineered for the physiological demands of an eight-hour shift. The 310gsm fabric weight provides a reassuring heft without restricting mobility, largely thanks to the soft 2-way stretch inherent in the elastane blend. This 'Active Cut' allows for a full range of motion, whether reaching overhead for cabling or bending for materials, ensuring that the hem doesn't rise and expose the lower back to cold draughts. Inside, the wearer is greeted by a 100% polyester microfleece inner layer, which not only traps warm air to regulate body temperature but also wicks moisture away from the skin. The comfort profile is further enhanced by seamless shoulders, a design choice that eliminates the risk of chafing when carrying heavy backpacks or equipment harnesses. Operational versatility is addressed through underarm zip vents with mesh covers, allowing for rapid heat dumping during periods of intense physical exertion. With a fully adjustable shock-cord hem and tear-release cuffs, every employee can tailor the fit to their specific preference, ensuring maximum comfort and compliance throughout the workday.
