Product Information

Full details

The Reebok Compton Softshell is a versatile jacket for adults seeking comfortable protection during cooler, breezy conditions. Its key benefit is the flexible, smooth softshell fabric that allows for ease of movement, making it suitable for active commutes or light outdoor activities. A potential caveat is its suitability for extremely cold or wet weather, as it is designed for breezy conditions. Key features include a full-length zip, raised collar, attached hood, zip chest pocket, two hand pockets, adjustable cuff tabs, and minimal seam placement for a clean silhouette.

FAQs

What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?

The Compton Softshell is best suited for cooler, breezy conditions. It's ideal for transitional seasons like spring and autumn, or for layering during milder winter days.

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, the Compton Softshell is designed to be wind-resistant and comfortable for active use, but it is not fully waterproof. It may offer some protection against light drizzle but is not suitable for heavy rain.

Can I wear a thick sweater under this jacket?

While the jacket is designed with a clean silhouette, it can accommodate lighter layers like t-shirts or thin fleeces comfortably. For very thick sweaters, consider sizing up if available, or be aware that it might feel snug.

How do I adjust the cuffs?

The cuffs have adjustable tabs that can be fastened to create a tighter seal around your wrists, helping to keep out drafts.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made from a blend of polyester and elastane, offering durability, comfort, and flexibility.

Where is the Reebok branding located?

Subtle Reebok branding is featured on the chest and on the zipper placket.

What is the main benefit of the stretch fabric?

The added stretch in the softshell fabric provides a flexible feel and allows for greater freedom of movement, especially through the shoulders and arms, making it comfortable for active use.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If still stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a tiny bit of wax to the teeth.

Jacket feels too tight or restrictive

Adjust the cuff tabs for a more comfortable fit. Consider wearing lighter layers underneath, as the jacket is designed for breezy conditions rather than heavy insulation.

Pockets are not secure

Ensure all zippers are fully closed. The chest pocket and hand pockets are designed with zip closures for security.

Fabric loses its smooth texture

Follow the recommended care instructions carefully. Avoid harsh detergents, high heat drying, and ironing, which can damage the fabric's finish.
