Product Information
Full details
The Mascot Advanced Thermal Jacket is designed for adult males who need a durable, water-repellent, and warm work jacket without excessive bulk. Its key benefit is the CLIMASCOT Lightweight Insulation, providing warmth while maintaining a streamlined profile for enhanced freedom of movement. A potential caveat is that while water-repellent, it may not be fully waterproof for prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Key features include its two-toned design, high collar with drawstring, multiple zip pockets for secure storage, ergonomically shaped sleeves, and reflective elements for visibility.

FAQs
What makes the CLIMASCOT® insulation special?
CLIMASCOT® insulation is uniquely lightweight and soft. It provides effective warmth without adding bulk or restricting movement, and it compresses down significantly for easy storage when not needed.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket is water-repellent, meaning it can handle light rain or snow. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate. This jacket is designed to keep you dry in moderate conditions.
How do I clean the jacket to maintain its properties?
Machine wash the jacket at 40°C on a colored wash cycle. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron. For best results, air dry and consider using specialized technical washes for outdoor gear.
Can this jacket be worn by women?
This specific product listing is for the male variant. However, Mascot offers unisex versions of this jacket that are suitable for all genders. Please check for availability of unisex sizing.
What are the benefits of the ergonomically shaped sleeves?
The sleeves are shaped to follow the natural contours of the arm during movement, allowing for a greater range of motion and reducing fatigue, which is essential for physically demanding tasks.
How does the adjustable drawstring at the waist help?
The adjustable elastic drawstring at the waist allows you to cinch the jacket for a snugger fit, preventing cold air from entering and keeping the jacket securely in place during activity.
What does Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certification mean?
Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certification ensures that the textile product has been tested for harmful substances and is therefore harmless for human health. It signifies a commitment to safety and environmental responsibility in textile production.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Utilize the adjustable elastic drawstring at the waist and the stretch fabric at the sides for a more personalized fit.
Zipper is difficult to operate.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free the fabric. If persistent, lubricate the zipper track with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.
Reduced water repellency after washing.
Follow the care instructions precisely. Consider using a technical wash and a re-proofer spray designed for outdoor apparel to restore water-repellent properties, ensuring you do not use fabric softener.
Reflectors appear to be fading.
Avoid harsh detergents and high-heat drying, as these can degrade reflector material over time. Gentle washing and air-drying are recommended.
