Softshell jackets for trade and transport use

A softshell jacket fills the gap between a fleece and a waterproof outer. It blocks wind more effectively than a fleece and moves better than a hard-shell waterproof. For roles where you are moving in and out of a cab, working around a vehicle, or doing yard work in variable weather, a softshell is often the most practical single outer layer.

Tuffstuff's Stratford softshell is the smarter option — cleaner styling and a cut that sits well over a base layer or polo shirt in depot and customer-facing environments. The Stanton uses a stretch softshell fabric with articulated patterning for greater freedom of movement. For mechanics and drivers doing active physical work, the Stanton is the more practical choice.

Fort's Holkham adds a hood to the standard softshell design, useful for outdoor workers who need head protection in light rain. The Selkirk is the non-hooded Fort option.

Softshell fabrics carry a durable water repellent (DWR) finish. Heavy or sustained rain will eventually penetrate a softshell — for those conditions a fully waterproof outer layer is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a softshell jacket waterproof?

Softshell jackets carry a DWR coating that resists light rain and spray. They are not fully waterproof. In heavy or prolonged rain a softshell will eventually wet through.

What is the difference between the Tuffstuff Stratford and Stanton softshells?

The Stratford uses a standard softshell fabric with smarter styling suited to depot and customer-facing environments. The Stanton uses a stretch softshell fabric for greater freedom of movement, better suited to physically active roles.

How do I maintain the water repellency of a softshell jacket?

Wash without fabric softener, then tumble dry on low heat to reactivate the DWR treatment. If repellency is still poor, a spray-on DWR reproofing product can restore performance.

Can softshell jackets be worn as mid-layers?

Yes, though most softshell jackets are cut as outer layers and may not sit comfortably under a heavy waterproof. Check the fit allows for it.
