THE FINISHING DETAILS
Custom Embroidered Soft Shell Jackets
Coordinate a company layer without giving every employee the same sleeve coverage. Compare the J317 and L317 jackets with J325 and L325 vests, then choose the fit and insulation underneath for the actual workday.

Customize L325Jackets for coverage, vests for flexible layering
The Core Soft Shell jacket is the full-sleeve option; a vest keeps the arms free and leaves more of the shirt visible. Compare chest and body measurements over the layer employees will wear underneath. A close fit over a T-shirt may not work over a heavier uniform.
Understand weather descriptions
The J317 combines a woven shell with bonded microfleece. Supplier-described water repellency and wind resistance are useful comparisons, but they do not make an embroidered jacket waterproof. Check the specific style and color’s fabric details; heather compositions can differ. Choose actual protective equipment separately if the job requires it.
Choose a logo location around construction
Chest zippers, pockets and seams can narrow the available area. Use the product’s supported placements and let staff confirm the fit. For a coordinated jacket-and-vest order, compare the logo’s visual size on both garments rather than assuming identical maximum dimensions.
Questions about this selection
Will this replace winter outerwear?
That depends on conditions and the layers underneath. These products do not carry a temperature recommendation here.
Should we choose fleece instead?
Fleece has a different surface and layering role. Use our soft-shell-versus-fleece comparison to decide before collecting sizes.
