Blaklader 4950 Softshell Jacket - Blue - XL

The softshell material provides a good balance of wind resistance, water repellency, and breathability, making it comfortable for active use in variable conditions.

The jacket is unlined and primarily designed for wind protection and moderate temperatures. For very cold weather, it is best used as a layering piece over warmer insulating garments.

You can adjust the fit using the Velcro closures on the cuffs and the drawstring at the hem. The pre-bent elbows also contribute to a comfortable, non-restrictive fit.

The jacket features multiple practical pockets, including a chest pocket with a zipper, front pockets with zippers, and inner pockets for secure storage.

The front zipper is a one-way plastic zipper fitted with a small fleece-lined flap to protect the chin.

Yes, it can be machine washed at a maximum of 40°C (104°F). Ensure zippers are closed before washing.

Water repellent means the fabric resists water penetration from light rain or splashes, causing water to bead up and roll off. It is not waterproof and will not protect against prolonged or heavy rain.

Ensure the zipper is clear of debris. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Check that the fabric is not caught in the zipper slider.

Verify you have selected the correct size. Utilize the adjustable hem drawstring and Velcro cuffs to achieve a more comfortable fit. Consider layering with thinner base layers.

The water-repellent finish may need reapplication after extensive use or washing. Follow garment care instructions and consider using a waterproofing spray suitable for technical fabrics after washing and drying.
