Product Information
Full details
The Blaklader 4710 Work Jacket is designed for adult males seeking a versatile layering piece that offers protection against cold, wind, and wet conditions. Its key benefit is the hybrid construction providing warmth on the chest and sleeves while maintaining flexibility with stretch sides. A potential caveat is that while water-repellent, it is not fully waterproof, so heavy downpours may require additional protection. This jacket features a water-repellent polyamide fabric, warm lining, stretch panels, a zippered front with a windproof flap, and elasticated cuffs and hem for a snug fit.

FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket is water-repellent, meaning it can withstand light rain or splashes. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, a fully waterproof outer layer is recommended.
What is the main purpose of the stretch side panels?
The stretch side panels are designed to provide enhanced flexibility and a more comfortable, adaptive fit, allowing for a greater range of motion during physical activities.
Can I put patches or logos on this jacket?
Yes, the jacket features unquilted areas, particularly on the chest and back, which are suitable for corporate profiling, such as adding embroidery or heat-applied logos.
How warm is the lining?
The jacket has a warm lining on the chest and sleeves, designed to provide insulation against the cold. It's suitable as a mid-layer or for moderate cold conditions on its own.
Is there a women's version of this jacket?
Yes, Blaklader also offers a women's model of this quilted jacket, designed with a specific fit for female wearers.
What type of zipper does it have?
The jacket features a one-way plastic zipper, equipped with a windproof inner flap to prevent drafts from entering through the front opening.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is flat and free of obstructions. Gently try to pull the zipper up or down. If it persists, check for any fabric caught in the slider.
Jacket feels too tight in the shoulders or arms
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The stretch side panels offer some flexibility, but the primary fit is determined by the main garment size. Consider trying a size up if mobility is significantly restricted.
Water repellency is decreasing
The water-repellent treatment may wear off over time. Reapply a suitable waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment designed for synthetic fabrics after cleaning. Follow the product instructions carefully.
