Russell Athletic Softshell Jacket (J140M) | Embroidered Softshell Jackets
Product Description
The Softshell Jacket (J140M) is the softshell that has set the standard in the market — highly water-resistant and windproof, versatile and good looking, and a jacket that performs at every level.
Made as a 3-layer softshell with a breathable membrane and bonded microfleece lining from 92% polyester and 8% elastane (340gsm), it is water resistant to 5000mm, with side and chest pockets, a full zip with inner storm flap, a bungee cord in the hem, and adjustable cuffs. Stocked in 6 colours from XS to 4XL.
What Sets the J140M Apart
Genuinely Rated Water Resistance
A 5000mm water-resistance rating with a windproof membrane gives real protection against changeable outdoor weather.
Bonded Microfleece Lining
A soft microfleece lining adds warmth without bulk, while the breathable membrane helps moisture escape.
Practical, Secure Storage
Side pockets and a chest pocket, all with inner lining, reversed zips and cord pulls, keep essentials secure.
Adjustable and Weather-Ready
An inner storm flap, a zip neck protector at the collar, a bungee hem, adjustable cuffs and a drop tail help keep the wind and rain out.
Ideal For
- Outdoor trade and site teams
- Corporate and hospitality outerwear
- Delivery and logistics staff
