Product Overview
The Regatta Professional Erasmus 4-in-1 softshell jacket is a masterclass in adaptability, designed to tackle the unpredictable nature of British weather. By combining a technical softshell outer with a warming fleece inner, this garment offers four distinct configurations. Whether you need the full protection of a waterproof jacket or the freedom of a bodywarmer, the Erasmus adjusts to your environment, ensuring you remain productive regardless of the conditions.
Key Features
4-in-1 configuration: The modular design allows you to transition between a full jacket, a standalone fleece, or a bodywarmer, providing exceptional value and versatility for year-round use.
Softshell XPT fabric: This high-performance material is waterproof and breathable, keeping external moisture out while allowing internal perspiration to escape during physical exertion.
Detachable zip-off sleeves: Easily convert the jacket into a bodywarmer to provide core warmth while maintaining a full range of arm movement for technical tasks.
Symmetry fleece inner: The medium-weight anti-pill fleece offers a soft, thermal layer that resists bobbling, ensuring the garment looks professional even after repeated wear.
Adjustable detachable hood: Provides individual protection against wind and rain, which can be removed entirely when a more streamlined appearance is required.
Design & Performance
Constructed from 100% polyester, the Erasmus utilises a 3-layer membrane system in its Softshell XPT fabric. This technical layering provides a robust barrier against the wind while maintaining a supple feel that does not restrict movement. The outer fabric is substantial and sturdy enough to withstand the rigours of a busy site, yet remains breathable enough to prevent overheating during active shifts.
The interior fleece is engineered with an anti-pill finish, which is essential for maintaining a clean, professional image. Unlike standard fleeces that can look worn after a few weeks of use, the Symmetry fleece is designed to stay smooth and presentable. The inclusion of a wind-resistant membrane within the fleece further enhances its performance as a standalone piece in cooler, breezy conditions.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Erasmus 4-in-1 is an ideal canvas for corporate branding. For a durable and prestigious finish, we recommend embroidery. This method is particularly effective for company logos and staff names, providing a textured, high-quality appearance that withstands the elements as well as the jacket itself.
If your branding requires larger, more vibrant graphics, our specialist printing services are perfectly suited. Our in-house production team, based in Telford since 1976, ensures that every application is executed with precision. We understand the technical requirements of applying branding to multi-layered softshell fabrics, ensuring your logo remains intact without compromising the garment's waterproof properties.
Use Cases
This jacket is specifically engineered for tradespeople and site managers who frequently move between outdoor environments and indoor settings. It is equally suitable for logistics personnel who require flexibility throughout their shift. Its professional aesthetic also makes it a popular choice for corporate uniforms where external site visits are common.

Practical Advice
The Erasmus is designed with a standard fit to accommodate layering. If you intend to wear the fleece and softshell together over thick work shirts, we recommend checking our size guide carefully to ensure a comfortable range of motion. The zip-off sleeves are a particularly useful feature when working in tight spaces where sleeve bulk might be an encumbrance.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical performance of the Softshell XPT fabric and the wind-resistant membrane, it is essential to follow the care instructions carefully. Proper maintenance ensures the waterproof barriers remain effective and your custom branding stays sharp for the life of the garment.
We recommend using a delicate wash cycle to prevent unnecessary stress on the technical seams and membrane. Using the correct cycle ensures the 100% polyester fibres retain their shape and performance characteristics.
Avoid using bleach at all costs, as harsh chemicals will degrade the polyester fibres and cause significant damage to the waterproof coating and any printed logos. Similarly, this garment should not be tumble dried; heat from a dryer can cause the synthetic layers to delaminate and may damage the adhesive used in printed customisations.
Do not iron or dry clean the jacket. High temperatures and chemical solvents will compromise the integrity of the 3-layer membrane and the anti-pill finish of the fleece, leading to a loss of weather resistance and a diminished professional look.
