Product Overview
The 2786 Obsidian padded jacket is a sophisticated outerwear solution designed for those who require both warmth and a professional aesthetic during the colder months. Featuring a modern longline silhouette and a contemporary matt finish, this jacket moves away from the overly shiny sports aesthetic often found in padded garments, offering instead a refined look suitable for professional environments. Its multi-baffled construction is engineered to distribute heat evenly across the torso, making it an essential piece of equipment for individuals working in exposed conditions.
Key Features
- Multi-Baffled Quilted Lining: The warm polyfill insulation is held securely in place by innovative quilting, ensuring consistent thermal protection without cold spots.
- Integrated Storm Protection: A centre front zip combined with a secondary storm flap and an attached hood provides a robust barrier against wind and light rain.
- Strategic Pocket Configuration: Equipped with two zipped front pockets for security, two popper-fastened pockets for quick access, and a dedicated internal phone pocket to protect electronics from the elements.
- Adjustable Fit: Internal adjusters and hood toggles allow the wearer to create a snug seal, effectively locking in body heat and preventing draughts.
- Embroidery Access: Specifically designed for the workwear market, the jacket includes a discrete access point to ensure branding can be applied professionally without compromising the lining.
Design & Performance
Constructed from 100% polyester across the outer shell, padding, and lining, the Obsidian jacket is built for resilience. The fabric selection ensures the garment remains lightweight enough for all-day wear while providing the substantial insulation required for outdoor shifts. The matt finish provides a tactile, premium feel that resists the typical wear and tear of a busy working day. The longline cut offers extended coverage, which is particularly beneficial when stationary for long periods or moving between sites in inclement weather.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Obsidian jacket is an excellent canvas for corporate branding. We recommend embroidery for this specific garment; the technique provides a high-quality, textured finish that complements the jacket's substantial feel and is perfect for displaying company logos or individual names. For those requiring larger, more prominent graphics, our printing process delivers sharp, vibrant results that stand out against the matt polyester finish.
Our expert team in Telford has been refining these customisation techniques since 1976. We handle every stage of the process in-house to ensure your branding meets our rigorous quality standards and enhances your professional appearance.
Use Cases
This jacket is ideally suited for site managers, surveyors, and outdoor event staff who need to maintain a professional image while staying warm. It is equally effective as a high-quality team uniform for transport and logistics sectors where staff are frequently transitioning between vehicles and outdoor environments.

Practical Advice
The Obsidian jacket features a generous sizing range from S to 3XL. Given its padded nature and longline silhouette, we recommend choosing your standard size if you intend to wear it over a single base layer or polo shirt. If you frequently wear heavy sweatshirts or fleeces underneath, you may wish to consider the measurements provided in our size guide to ensure a comfortable fit across the chest and shoulders.
Caring for your product
To maintain the thermal performance and aesthetic of your jacket, it should be machine washed at 30°C on a gentle setting. High temperatures can damage the polyester fibres and lead to the degradation of the polyfill insulation, which would reduce the jacket's ability to retain heat.
Avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will break down the fabric's structure and can cause significant discolouration to both the jacket and your custom branding. We also advise against dry cleaning for the same reason.
This garment should not be tumble dried. Tumble drying can cause the internal padding to clump or melt, destroying the jacket's silhouette and insulation properties. Instead, allow it to air dry naturally. If necessary, a low iron can be used, but care must be taken to avoid direct contact with any printed elements.
