#soft shell jackets

Understanding jacket types ensures optimal selection for corporate uniforms, decoration projects, and team outfitting needs. Jackets serve different purposes based on construction, fabric, and intended use across four main categories: performance jackets for outdoor activities, fashion jackets for style, teamwear jackets for group identification, and workwear jackets for industrial environments. Core jacket types include softshell jackets offering wind and water resistance with breathability, fleece jackets providing warmth through brushed polyester insulation, windbreakers featuring lightweight packable shells, insulated jackets with thermal fill for cold weather, and rain jackets with waterproof membranes for heavy rainfall protection. Specialized options encompass bomber jackets for street style, work jackets with heavy-duty canvas construction, sleeveless vests for mobility, hybrid jackets combining insulation with stretch, fashion jackets prioritizing appearance, and parkas plus puffer jackets for extreme cold conditions. Customization compatibility varies by fabric type, with embroidery excelling on softshell and canvas materials, while DTF transfers work best on windbreakers and nylon shells.

High-visibility workwear significantly reduces construction site accidents, with ANSI-compliant apparel cutting struck-by incidents by 40-50%. Bureau of Labour Statistics data shows 54 worker-pedestrians killed annually in work zones, making proper visibility gear critical for safety and compliance. ANSI/ISEA 107-2020 establishes three safety classes: Class 1 (217 sq. in. fluorescent material) for indoor/low-risk environments, Class 2 (775 sq. in. fluorescent, 201 sq. in. reflective) for moderate-risk roads with traffic over 25 mph, and Class 3 (1,240 sq. in. fluorescent, 310 sq. in. reflective) for high-speed traffic exceeding 50 mph with 360-degree visibility up to 1,280 feet. ShirtsBargain offers ANSI-compliant wholesale safety apparel from CornerStone and Port Authority, including the CSJ503 Class 3 Soft Shell (5000MM waterproof), Port Authority J799S Class 3 Parka (8000MM waterproof), and budget-friendly Class 2 vests with no minimum orders and bulk pricing, delivering substantial cost savings.

Winter weather can mean that branded work shirts are hidden under rainproof coats and your embroidered business logo can no longer be seen. We have the perfect solution to this.

We have a variety of jackets for all weather types that can be embellished with your business branding so your logo can be seen on cold and drizzly days too.

We stock top brands including Regatta, Kariban and SOL and there are three types of jacket that can include your business branding:

The lightweight jacket is a waterproof option for milder drizzly weather.

The midweight jacket which includes a waterproof outer layer with a fleece inner coat is for colder rainy days and

The heavyweight jackets have 3 layers including a softshell outer layer and an inner body warmer and fleece layer for bitterly cold days.

Other jacket options include the soft shell jacket and the padded jacket.

Soft Shell Jackets

Soft Shell Jackets are intended for use outdoors and can be worn alone or as part of the layering system. They are ideal for aerobic activity in mild weather conditions. They are water repellent and highly breathable and can be used as an insulating layer under a ‘hard shell’ outer jacket.

Some of the top brands that we stock include Russell, Glenmuir and Lee Cooper and each of these jackets can be embroidered with a colourful business logo.

Padded Jackets

For a little more warmth during the cold winter months we have a selection of padded jackets. The padding inside is hollow fibre polyester. Hollow fibre gets its name from the fine, hollow strand of polyester that it is made from. The hollow centre traps air and helps to provide a light and warm filling for a jacket.

All our jackets come in a variety of sizes and colours so you can choose what best suits your business brand and will make your company name stand out from the crowd.
