Product Information
Full details
The Lyle & Scott Softshell Jacket in Grey (Size L) is designed for adults seeking adaptable outerwear for unpredictable weather. Its key benefit is the balance between protection and breathability, making it suitable for everyday wear and easy layering. A potential consideration is that it is primarily constructed of polyester, which may affect breathability in very high-exertion activities compared to more technical fabrics. This jacket features a mesh-back for enhanced airflow, a flexible softshell construction, and an embroidered Lyle & Scott eagle logo.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
This softshell jacket is designed to be water-resistant, providing protection against light rain or drizzle. It is not fully waterproof and may not withstand heavy or prolonged rainfall.
What is the primary material of the jacket?
The jacket is made from 100% Polyester, with a mesh-back design for enhanced breathability.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
The jacket is lightweight and designed for changeable conditions. For very cold weather, it is best used as a mid-layer, worn over a warmer base layer and potentially under a heavier outer coat.
How do I ensure the best fit?
The jacket comes in a regular fit. Refer to standard sizing charts for men's apparel to select the size that best suits your measurements. This specific item is a size L.
What does the mesh-back do?
The mesh-back enhances airflow and ventilation within the jacket, helping to regulate body temperature and prevent overheating during physical activity or in warmer conditions.
How should I wash the jacket?
You should wash the jacket inside out with similar colours using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and high heat for drying. Refer to the care label for detailed instructions.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less breathable than expected.
Ensure the mesh-back lining is not obstructed and that the garment is clean. Residue from detergents or dirt can sometimes affect fabric performance. Wash according to care instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Sometimes, a small amount of graphite from a pencil tip or a specialized zipper lubricant can help smooth the action. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Embroidery is fraying.
Trim any loose threads carefully with small scissors. Avoid snagging the embroidery during wear or washing.
Jacket has lost some water resistance.
Consider using a waterproofing spray specifically designed for softshell or polyester fabrics. Ensure the jacket is clean before applying any re-waterproofing treatment.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the quality and longevity of your Lyle & Scott Softshell Jacket:
- Washing: Wash inside out with similar colours. This helps preserve the outer finish and any printed or embroidered details.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the fabric's pores and reduce breathability and water-resistance.
- Temperature: Wash at a moderate temperature, typically 30°C (86°F), unless the care label specifies otherwise.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry. Avoid high heat, which can damage the fabric and its protective properties.
- Ironing: If ironing is necessary, do so on a low setting and avoid direct contact with any logos or prints.
