FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket is designed for light showers and wind resistance, but it is not classified as waterproof for heavy, prolonged rain.
Does this jacket have an internal phone pocket?
Yes, it features a dedicated inner phone pocket designed to keep your device secure and protected from the elements.
How do I regulate my temperature while wearing this?
The jacket includes zipped air vents located under the arms that you can open to release excess heat during intense activity.
Is the hood fully removable?
Yes, the hood is attached via buttons and can be completely detached when not required.
Does it offer high-visibility protection?
While it is not a high-visibility garment, it does feature reflective piping on the side pockets to provide basic low-light visibility.
What is the best way to clean the fleece lining?
Wash the jacket inside out on a cool, gentle cycle to protect the fleece and maintain the outer material's finish.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or stuck
Clear any debris from the zipper teeth and apply a small amount of graphite or a specialist silicone zipper lubricant to ensure smooth movement.
Hood keeps falling off
Ensure all buttons or attachment points are fully secured; if the hood is still loose, check that the fabric has not snagged underneath the attachment flap.
Velcro cuffs losing grip
Use a pair of tweezers to remove lint and debris from the hook side of the Velcro closure to restore its grip strength.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your JCB Trade Softshell Jacket, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold water to maintain the integrity of the fleece lining and synthetic outer shell. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners as they can degrade the technical properties of the fabric.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to prevent shrinkage or heat damage to the zippers. Do not tumble dry on high heat.
- Adjustment: Before starting your workday, use the drawstring at the hem to create a custom seal around your waist to block out drafts. Adjust the Velcro cuffs to fit snugly over or under your work gloves as preferred.
- Storage: When not in use, hang the jacket in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew and ensure the zipper mechanisms remain unobstructed.
