Product Overview
The SOL'S Shield Unisex Windbreaker Jacket is a thoughtfully engineered outer layer designed for those who require protection from the elements without the restrictive weight of a traditional jacket. This lightweight garment is crafted from recycled 190T polyester, offering a sustainable choice for environmentally conscious businesses. Its primary function is to provide a reliable barrier against wind and light rain, ensuring that your team remains comfortable during outdoor tasks or transit between sites.
Key Features
- Water-Repellent Finish: The fabric is treated to repel water, ensuring that light rain beads off the surface rather than soaking through, keeping the wearer dry during unpredictable weather.
- Packable Design: For professionals on the move, this jacket conveniently packs away into its own pocket. This ensures it occupies minimal space in a vehicle or kit bag when not in use.
- Grown-on Hood with Drawcord: The integrated hood provides immediate protection from sudden showers, with an adjustable drawcord to secure the fit against high winds.
- Secure Storage: Two front pockets featuring tear-release closures allow for the safe keeping of essential tools or personal items while maintaining easy access.
- Elasticated Cuffs and Hem: These features ensure a snug fit that traps warmth and prevents cold draughts from entering the garment, enhancing overall comfort.
Design & Performance
The performance of the SOL'S Shield is rooted in its recycled 190T polyester construction. This lightweight fabric is chosen for its durability and its ability to withstand the rigours of daily professional use while remaining breathable. The inclusion of a tear-out label is a specific design choice that prevents irritation at the neck, which is particularly beneficial during long shifts. Furthermore, the jacket meets several rigorous standards, including PETA-Approved Vegan and Fair Wear Foundation certifications, reflecting a commitment to ethical manufacturing and social compliance.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This windbreaker serves as a versatile platform for your corporate identity. At MyWorkwear, our Telford-based team—utilising expertise built since 1976—can customise this garment to suit your specific branding requirements. Embroidery is an excellent choice for adding a professional, high-quality logo to the chest, providing a textured finish that is both durable and sophisticated. For larger, high-visibility branding on the back of the jacket, our technical print processes offer a bold and clear finish that ensures your company name is easily recognisable from a distance.
Use Cases
This jacket is ideally suited for outdoor leisure sectors, site supervisors, and delivery personnel. Its lightweight nature makes it perfect for spring and autumn months or as a quick-response layer for workers who move frequently between indoor and outdoor environments. It is a practical choice for any professional seeking a uniform that balances environmental responsibility with functional performance.

Practical Advice
Because this is a lightweight windbreaker, we recommend it as part of a layering system. For colder conditions, it fits comfortably over a medium-weight sweatshirt or fleece. When selecting your size, consider the layers you intend to wear underneath to ensure a professional fit that allows for full range of motion during physical tasks.
Caring for your product
To maintain the water-repellent properties and the integrity of your custom branding, it is essential to follow correct maintenance procedures. Regular cleaning prevents the build-up of dirt which can degrade the fabric's performance over time.
We recommend a gentle wash to preserve the recycled polyester fibres and the vibrancy of your embroidered or printed logo. Avoid using harsh chemical bleaches, as these will weaken the synthetic materials and cause the colours to fade prematurely. When drying, avoid high-heat environments which can damage the water-repellent coating and the customisation; instead, air drying is the preferred method to ensure the jacket retains its shape and functional attributes.
