Product Overview
The Tee Jays Mountain Hooded Fleece Jacket is a heavyweight, high-performance garment designed for those who require substantial thermal protection combined with modern technical features. This isn't just a standard fleece; it is a rugged outer or mid-layer built to withstand the demands of professional outdoor environments. By combining a dense polyester body with strategic reinforcements, Tee Jays has created a jacket that balances warmth with long-term durability.
Key Features
- Reinforced Ripstop Panels: The inclusion of 92% polyester and 8% elastane panels provides essential abrasion resistance in high-wear areas, ensuring the jacket survives frequent use in tough conditions.
- Premium SBS Zips: Featuring a full-length SBS zip equipped with both a chin guard and an inner zip guard to prevent irritation and block out wind.
- Integrated Hood: The grown-on hood design provides immediate weather protection and warmth without the mechanical failure points of detachable alternatives.
- Secure Storage: Multiple pockets, including an internal pocket and two front pockets, offer ample space for securing tools or mobile devices while on the move.
- Adjustable Fit: A drawcord hem and bound elasticated cuffs allow the wearer to trap heat effectively and adjust the garment to their specific body shape.
Design & Performance
The performance of this jacket lies in its fabric composition. The heavyweight polyester fleece provides excellent insulation by trapping air within its fibres, while the ripstop panels add a layer of protection where it is needed most. The addition of elastane in the reinforced sections ensures that the jacket moves with the wearer, providing flexibility that is often missing in heavier workwear. Despite its substantial feel, the unlined design ensures that moisture can escape during high-activity tasks, preventing the 'damp' feeling associated with less breathable alternatives.
Customisation: Embroidery Only
This item is offered exclusively for embroidery. The thick, textured pile of a heavyweight fleece does not provide a suitable surface for heat-transfer prints, which can peel or appear uneven. Embroidery, however, anchors your branding directly into the fabric structure. Our Telford-based embroidery team, established in 1976, uses high-quality threads that match the durability of the Tee Jays fleece, ensuring your company logo remains professional and vibrant for the lifetime of the garment.
Use Cases
Given its technical specifications, this jacket is ideally suited for outdoor leisure, winter sports, and site-based professional work. It is particularly effective for tradespeople working in exposed environments or logistics staff who transition between cold storage and outdoor loading bays.

Practical Advice
This is a heavyweight fleece, so it can feel more substantial than a standard layer. If you intend to wear this as a primary outer layer over several shirts, ensure you check the sizing carefully. The elasticated cuffs are designed to be snug to keep the wind out, so consider this if you frequently wear large work gloves.
Caring for your product
To ensure the longevity of both the fleece and your custom embroidery, it is essential to follow correct care procedures. Washing at a moderate temperature helps maintain the structural integrity of the polyester fibres and prevents the ripstop panels from losing their elasticity.
We recommend washing the jacket inside out. This protects the embroidery threads from friction against other items in the load, which helps prevent fraying and keeps your logo looking sharp. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemical detergents, as these can break down the synthetic fibres and cause the colour to fade prematurely. Finally, air drying is preferred over tumble drying to avoid the risk of heat damage to the zip pulls and technical panels.
