Product Overview

• Two front welt pockets provide practical storage for personal items while maintaining a clean, streamlined aesthetic.
• The self-colour stripe along the sleeves adds a subtle, high-quality design detail that elevates the garment above standard basics.

Design & Performance

Engineered from 100% recycled polyester, this jacket is a robust choice for daily wear. The midweight fabric strikes a balance between providing warmth during cooler months and remaining breathable during more active periods. Polyester is inherently durable and resistant to many common stains, which is a significant advantage for junior workwear. This style is not only functional but is also backed by a suite of ethical certifications including PETA-Approved Vegan and Fair Wear Foundation, ensuring that your choice supports responsible manufacturing practices.

Customisation: Print & Embroidery

The smooth surface of the recycled polyester makes this jacket an ideal candidate for both print and embroidery. For a formal and enduring look—such as school crests or club emblems—embroidery is highly recommended. Our in-house team in Telford uses high-tensile threads to ensure the branding lasts as long as the garment itself. For larger, more vibrant designs or names across the back, our printing processes offer sharp detail and excellent colour reproduction. Having been established in 1976, we have the technical expertise to ensure your logo is applied with precision.

Use Cases

This jacket is specifically designed for junior applications, making it a primary choice for school uniforms, youth clubs, and team sports. Its unisex design ensures it is suitable for all students, while the recycled material appeals to organisations with strong environmental policies. It functions perfectly as an outer layer for spring and autumn or as a mid-layer during the winter months.

Why MyWorkwear

By managing our customisation in-house, we maintain total control over the production process, ensuring that every junior jacket we deliver meets our rigorous standards for durability and finish.

Practical Advice

When selecting sizes for a junior group, consider that the relaxed fit and dropped shoulders already provide a generous cut. If the jacket is to be worn over bulky school jumpers, we suggest staying true to the age-based size, but for a more fitted look, some users may prefer a size down. Layering this over a moisture-wicking base layer will maximise the performance of the polyester fabric.

Caring for your product

Maintaining the integrity of recycled polyester is straightforward but requires attention to detail to ensure the garment and its customisation remain in top condition. Consistent care prevents the breakdown of synthetic fibres and keeps the jacket looking professional for longer.

If bleach is applied to this garment, it can severely damage the recycled polyester fibres and cause significant discolouration to both the fabric and any embroidery or print. We recommend avoiding all bleaching agents to preserve the jacket's colour and structural integrity.

When it comes to drying, high heat should be avoided as it can cause the polyester to shrink or lose its shape. Air drying is the most effective way to ensure the jacket retains its original dimensions and that any printed designs do not crack or peel over time.
