Softshell is a miracle textile: Being water repellent, windproof, breathable and elastic, it is no wonder that this functional fabric and its many strong properties are very popular for jackets. The Strauss online shop offers softshell jackets and vests for men, women and children in many different variations and for a variety of uses. Which one of them is suitable for your needs? You can easily find out the answer with some information.
Softshell is a functional fabric made of laminated membrane layers. The membrane layers give softshell jackets the perfect properties for various outdoor and indoor uses: The outer layer is wind and water repellent, the inside keeps the wearer warm, is breathable and simultaneously transports moisture to the outside. The outer layer is extremely robust and resistant, but also very elastic. This makes the jacket ideal for tangible action in the workplace!
Insulation and breathability: softshell and fleece jackets have a lot in common. But there are also differences: For example, jackets made of softshell are much more windproof and therefore also warmer. Fluffy, insulating fleece is also ideal for lining the inside of softshell jackets or bodywarmers. For example, the shellloft e.s.dynashield jacket has a high-piled fleece inside.
Softshell jackets are very versatile as a result of their various functions: people wear them at work, during leisure time or for sports. But not every softshell jacket is the same! A glance into the Strauss online shop shows: Some models are an ideal thermal layer. Good insulation at mild temperatures, optimal climatic comfort, very light and elastic: perfect as a transitional jacket or for indoor jobs! Some models even provide a certain amount of weather protection, making them an ideal companion for very low temperatures and uncomfortable weather. Perfect for outdoor use on cold days! Ask yourself which functions are most important for your job.
In general, all softshell jackets by Strauss are characterised by good insulation. But there are gradations: If you are looking for a jacket to keep you comfortable in mild temperatures, then a softer one like the softshell jacket e.s. motion 2020 is right for you. The warming fleece lining is the right equipment, especially in spring, autumn and transitional seasons, but also for indoor jobs (such as gastronomy, medical areas and logistics). For very low temperatures or even extreme cold we recommend an Strauss softshell jacket with ISOFILL® lining, which keeps you extremely warm while also remaining breathable. Depending on the degree of cold, it is best to choose ISOFILL® at level 200, or even a warmer level 300.
Softshell jackets by Strauss are water repellent. This means that they provide some protection from moisture, causing moisture and precipitate to roll off the textile surface and not penetrate. If you are, however, exposed to permanent heavy rainfall, you should resort to a waterproof jacket instead. A textile’s waterproofness is confirmed by independent tests and is subsequently certified. The corresponding standard is called DIN EN 343. In the Strauss online shop you can find waterproof raincoats which are certified with this standard.
Wind does not even have be particularly strong to cool the body after some time and thus withdraw important energy. Windproof softshell jackets for men or women by Strauss are always a good choice if you're moving a lot, sitting outside in windy weather or working in draughty rooms, because these are real wind protectors. The integrated dryplexx-soft shell textile stops the wind from penetrating the jacket. For example, it seals the winter windproof softshell jacket e.s.roughtough very well: It is also equipped with elastic cuffs to reliably stop wind from penetrating the sleeve hem. With its highly durable material and sturdy triple seams, this model is perfect for heavy-duty outdoor work with hand tools.
Constant arm movements, twists of the upper body, frequent bending over: Surely you recognise these movements from your job and therefore know how exhausting these are with a stiff, inflexible jacket. Softshell jackets are very elastic and adapt to your movements optimally. Many Strauss models are also equipped with practical accessories which provide better comfort of movement. Elastic knitted insets on the sleeves of the jacket shellloft e.s.dynashield support the wrists when driving screws.
Workwear by Strauss should be your reliable partner in your daily job! Based on this principle, the jackets in the Strauss online shop are therefore equipped with plenty of practical pockets and clever features to help you with daily challenges. Many softshell jackets have subtle reflectors, a small visual highlight, which makes them very easy to see even in low light. The winter softshell jacket e.s.roughtough is a real pocket wonder: three inside pockets and two side pockets, two breast pockets and an inner mesh pocket. There's plenty of storage space for hand tools, cell phones and everything else you need within reach.
This is not just a question of fashion! For outdoor use we recommend you choose a hooded model like the softshell jacket e.s. motion. The volume of the hood can be adjusted as needed, and when it is not needed you can even remove it on most models using a zipper. If you do not want to wear a hood at all, you can still find your favourite model in the Strauss clothing section.

In addition to mens softshell jackets, you can also find models for women and children as well as very different jacket types, which are equipped with special features for different uses.
