Product Overview
The B&C #Reset windbreaker (BA511) represents a sophisticated approach to portable weather protection, blending modern design with environmental responsibility. Constructed from 100% recycled polyester, this lightweight jacket is designed to be packed into its own zipped pocket, making it an essential companion for personnel who require a versatile layer against unpredictable British weather. Its unisex, contemporary fit ensures a consistent appearance across a diverse workforce, while the fluorine-free water-repellent finish provides reliable protection without the use of harmful chemicals.
Key Features
- Water-Resistant Construction: The durable water-repellent (DWR) coating ensures light rain beads off the surface, keeping the wearer dry during brief showers.
- Adjustable Three-Part Hood: Features an integrated drawcord that allows for a precise fit, providing enhanced defence against wind and driving rain.
- Integrated Packable Design: The garment folds neatly into its own zipped pocket, offering a practical solution for staff who need to carry weather protection without the bulk of a traditional coat.
- Raglan Sleeves: This sleeve construction removes the shoulder seam, allowing for a full range of motion and preventing water ingress at the highest point of the garment.
- Semi-Elasticated Cuffs: These provide effective insulation by creating a snug fit around the wrists, preventing cold air from entering the sleeves.
Design & Performance
This windbreaker is engineered for those who demand performance from sustainable materials. The 100% recycled polyester fabric is not only environmentally conscious, as evidenced by its PETA-Approved Vegan and Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certifications, but also technically proficient. The fabric’s lightweight nature does not compromise its durability, offering a resilient barrier against the elements. The inclusion of the 'B&C No Label' solution makes this an ideal choice for businesses looking to implement their own internal branding without the distraction of third-party neck tags.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The B&C #Reset windbreaker has been rigorously tested to ensure compatibility with all major decoration techniques. For companies seeking a professional appearance, embroidery is an excellent choice for logos and staff names, providing a textured, high-quality finish that withstands regular wear. Alternatively, for larger promotional graphics or bold branding, print techniques offer a vibrant and sharp result. At MyWorkwear, our Telford-based team has been perfecting these processes since 1976, ensuring that your customisation is handled with expert precision to maintain the integrity of the water-resistant fabric.
Use Cases
Given its packable nature and contemporary styling, this jacket is perfectly suited for event staff, festival crews, and outdoor promotional teams. It also serves as an excellent lightweight outer layer for delivery drivers or tradespeople who require a professional look that can be easily stowed away when not in use. The wide size range from XS to 4XL ensures that it can be issued as a standard uniform across large, diverse teams.

Practical Advice
This windbreaker features a contemporary unisex fit. For those intending to wear it over heavier layers, such as a thick sweatshirt or fleece, we recommend reviewing the sizing guide to ensure a comfortable fit. The raglan sleeves are particularly beneficial for those who perform active tasks, as they provide more room around the underarm and shoulder compared to a standard set-in sleeve.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical performance of the water-resistant coating and the vibrancy of your custom branding, we recommend a domestic wash at 30°C. Washing at higher temperatures can degrade the recycled polyester fibres and affect the longevity of the DWR finish.
The garment should not be tumble dried, as the intense heat can damage the fabric's structure and any applied print or embroidery. Instead, allow it to air dry naturally. Ironing is also to be avoided, as the direct heat from an iron may melt the synthetic fibres and compromise the jacket’s wind-resistant properties.
Finally, do not use bleach or dry clean this item. These harsh chemical processes can strip the protective coatings from the fabric and cause significant fading to your company’s logo.
