Product Description
The Smart Softshell Jacket (J040M) is the traditional softshell and fleece hybrid, combining weather resistance, comfort and flexibility with a smart appearance that suits reception desks as well as the great outdoors.
Made from a 2-layer bonded softshell at 315gsm, with a woven 100% polyester outer bonded to a microfleece inner, it has a durable water-repellent DuPont Teflon coating, a taped neck, full-length reverse zip, two front zip pockets and a dropped tail. Stocked in 3 colours from XS to 3XL.
What Sets the J040M Apart
No Membrane, Higher Breathability
Unlike traditional membrane softshells, the bonded 2-layer construction offers a higher degree of breathability while still resisting wind and chill.
A Smart, Corporate Appearance
The clean lines and woven surface look smart enough for airports, supermarkets and front-of-house roles, as well as indoor and outdoor work.
Showerproof Teflon Coating
A durable water-repellent DuPont Teflon coating helps shed light rain and splashes.
Microfleece Warmth
A microfleece inner gives comfortable warmth without adding bulk.
Ideal For
- Retail and supermarket staff
- Airport and transport teams

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the J040M waterproof?
It is showerproof rather than fully waterproof, with a durable water-repellent DuPont Teflon coating. It has no membrane, which is why it is more breathable than a traditional softshell.
Is there a women's version?
Yes, see the Women's Smart Softshell Jacket (J040F), and the matching Smart Softshell Gilet (J041M).
Is the J040M suitable for embroidery?
Yes, it's suitable for both screen printing and embroidery.
What sizes are available?
XS (34/36" chest), S (36/38"), M (38/40"), L (40/42"), XL (42/44"), 2XL (44/46") and 3XL (46/48"). We stock 3 colours.
How should the J040M be washed?
Follow the care label, and do not use fabric softeners as they can affect the water-repellent finish.
