This Blåkläder 4749 Softshell Jacket is designed for adults seeking flexibility and protection in various work environments. Its key benefit is offering wind and waterproof performance with excellent freedom of movement due to its 2-way stretch fabric. A potential consideration is that while waterproof, the seams are not taped, which might affect performance in prolonged heavy rain.

This is a softshell jacket designed for protection against wind and water, with some insulation from the softshell material and fleece collar. It is best used as an outer layer in milder conditions or as a mid-layer in colder weather, combined with appropriate insulating garments.
Machine wash using a mild detergent at a maximum of 40°C. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Do not iron.
A waterproof rating of 10000 mm indicates that the fabric can withstand a column of water 10000 millimeters high before water penetrates it. This is generally considered good for moderate rain protection.
Yes, the hood is detachable and adjustable, allowing you to remove it when not needed or adjust it for a better fit.
The jacket features dark reflective piping on the shoulders and back. While they enhance visibility by reflecting light sources, their dark base color may make them less conspicuous in very low-light conditions compared to standard bright reflective materials.
The jacket has a breathability rating of 4000 g/m²/24H, meaning it allows approximately 4000 grams of water vapor to pass through per square meter in 24 hours.
No, this softshell jacket does not have taped seams. While the fabric itself is waterproof, the seams are not sealed, which means prolonged exposure to heavy rain could lead to water penetration at the seams.
This can be due to limited breathability during high exertion. Ensure the jacket is not too tightly layered underneath and consider opening zippers for ventilation. Always ensure the garment is clean, as dirt can clog pores and reduce breathability.
Check the zipper for any debris or fabric caught in the teeth. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush. Apply a small amount of wax or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth to improve movement. Ensure zippers are fully closed before washing.
As the jacket is not seam-taped, prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to some penetration. For light rain and showers, it should perform well. If performance degrades, consider reapplying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to the outer fabric. Ensure the jacket is clean before treatment.
Avoid high heat during washing and drying. Do not iron directly on reflective elements. If minor damage occurs, continued use may be safe, but reflectivity will be compromised in those areas.
Setup: This jacket requires no specific setup. It is ready to wear out of the package.
Compatibility: Designed as unisex apparel, suitable for adult wear. It pairs well with other workwear layers, such as t-shirts, long-sleeved shirts, or fleece pullovers, depending on the ambient temperature.
Care Instructions: To maintain the jacket's performance:
