JCB Padded Jacket Grey And Black, Mens Hooded Winter Work

160G WADDING AND A CLO RATING OF 2.5: CLO is the standard unit for measuring how much insulation a garment provides, so 2.5 is a stated figure you can compare rather than a vague claim about warmth. The fill is 160g of soft wadding, which is what holds that rating without the bulk of a heavy coat. FIXED NORDIC HOOD AND A RIPSTOP SHELL: The hood is a fixed Nordic design, so it is always there and there is nothing to detach and lose. The outer shell is 100% polyester ripstop at 85g, woven with a reinforcing grid so a snag from a nail or a bracket is contained instead of running into a tear across the sleeve. GREY AND BLACK: A two tone colourway combining grey and black panels. A two tone surface breaks up marks so soiling reads less obviously than it does on a single flat colour, and the black sits at the panels that meet surfaces first. The alternative colourway in this line is navy and black. WATER REPELLENT FINISH AND A LEFT BREAST POCKET: A durable water repellent finish holds light rain and spills on the surface, which matters on a padded jacket because wet wadding stops insulating. A left breast pocket takes a phone or a notebook where it stays reachable with the jacket done up, and a printed lining runs through the inside. JCB ENGINEERED WORKWEAR: JCB workwear combines advanced fabrics, durable construction and ergonomic design to deliver comfort, protection and performance across every trade. Finished with new JCB logo branding. The range keeps evolving to include the latest features and to reflect the changing world of work. WHAT THE WATER REPELLENT FINISH DOES AND WHAT IT IS NOT: The finish sheds light rain and spills so they can be wiped off before they reach the wadding. It is a repellent finish rather than a waterproof rating, so for a full day in sustained rain the JCB waterproof jacket goes over the top. Together they cover both jobs.
