Product Overview
The Tee Jays Lite Jacket represents a sophisticated evolution in professional outerwear, blending high-performance insulation with a conscious approach to manufacturing. Designed for those who require warmth without the encumbrance of a heavy coat, this jacket utilises DuPont™ padding to provide exceptional thermal retention in a lightweight format. The outer shell is crafted from a matte textured ripstop polyester, offering a modern, professional aesthetic that avoids the shine often associated with lower-quality garments. With its focus on recycled materials and technical functionality, the T9644 is a versatile choice for businesses looking to equip their team with attire that is both practical and environmentally responsible.

Design & Performance
The technical integrity of the Tee Jays Lite Jacket is evident in its material composition. The use of a 380T recycled nylon lining ensures a smooth internal finish that layers easily over base layers or sweatshirts. The matte texture of the ripstop outer not only provides a high-end appearance but also offers a level of durability suited to daily professional use. Performance is further bolstered by the jacket's certifications; it meets the RCS 100 standard, confirming it contains 95% or more recycled material, and is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, ensuring it is free from harmful substances.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Tee Jays Lite Jacket is an excellent canvas for corporate branding. For a superior finish that conveys authority and longevity, we recommend embroidery. This method is particularly effective for company logos on the chest, providing a textured, premium look that withstands regular wear. For larger, more vibrant branding requirements, such as event-specific designs or bold back graphics, high-quality printing is an effective alternative. Our expert in-house team in Telford, drawing on nearly five decades of experience since our founding in 1976, will ensure your branding is applied with precision.
Use Cases
This jacket is ideally suited for corporate environments where a professional appearance is paramount, as well as for field-based staff who need a lightweight layer that can be easily stowed. It is an excellent choice for management teams, sales professionals, or staff working in sectors such as logistics and facilities management where a clean, smart appearance is required alongside practical weather protection.

Practical Advice
As this is a lightweight padded jacket, it is highly effective as a transitional piece. For colder conditions, we recommend layering it over a high-quality polo shirt or a medium-weight sweatshirt. Because of its matte finish and streamlined padding, it can also be worn comfortably under a larger waterproof shell if the weather turns particularly severe. When selecting a size, consider the layers you intend to wear beneath it to ensure a comfortable fit that does not restrict arm movement.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and technical performance of your Tee Jays Lite Jacket, consistent and careful maintenance is required. Preserving the loft of the DuPont™ padding is essential for continued thermal efficiency; avoiding high-temperature drying is the best way to ensure the insulation does not clump or lose its heat-retaining properties.
The showerproof finish on the ripstop outer can be compromised by the use of harsh detergents or biological powders. We recommend using mild cleaning agents to ensure the fabric continues to repel water effectively. Furthermore, excessive heat during washing or drying can damage the recycled polyester fibres and the matte texture, so a gentle approach is always advised to keep the jacket looking professional for as long as possible.
