Product Overview
Built for active crews needing maximum mobility and breathability. Unlike heavy 3-layer jackets that cause overheating, the 2-layer bonded pongee (280–300 GSM) offers a lightweight, flexible fit for continuous movement.
Key Value Drivers for Distributors & Brand Owners:
Membrane-free 2-layer construction delivers superior breathability and flexibility. It reduces fatigue during long shifts, directly improving site productivity for personnel in constant motion.
Wrists and lower hems get dirty first. Black cuffs and bottom hem hide grease and grime, keeping uniforms looking clean longer and reducing overall replacement costs — a direct TCO benefit for fleet accounts.
Features double horizontal torso bands and extra striping on arms and shoulders for full 360-degree high visibility in high-traffic zones, rail yards, and night shifts — the highest visibility design level in the softshell category.
Provides high-visibility protection at a competitive price point without sacrificing professional quality. The preferred choice for large uniform tenders where budget and durability must balance.

Product Advantages
Lightweight & Breathable Comfort
Membrane-free 2-layer construction delivers superior breathability and flexibility. It reduces fatigue during long shifts, directly improving site productivity — a measurable ROI factor for large-scale uniform programs.
Lower TCO via Extended Uniform Life
Black cuffs and bottom hem conceal the two highest-wear areas on a jacket. By keeping the garment looking professional longer, replacement frequency is reduced — a direct TCO advantage for fleet accounts and long-term supply contracts.
Class 3 Compliance Positioning
The highest visibility design level in the softshell category. Double torso bands plus shoulder and arm striping provide maximum 360-degree visibility for high-traffic zones, night shift operations, and rail/marshaling environments.
Cost-Effective for Volume Contracts
Offers high-visibility protection at a competitive price point without sacrificing quality. Consistent batch quality, standardized lab-dip protocols, and full technical documentation support streamline procurement and tender fulfillment.

Frequently Asked Questions
DL1430 (3-layer with TPU membrane) offers full weatherproof protection for cold, wet conditions. DL1431 (2-layer) is lightweight, highly breathable, and more budget-friendly for active crews. It also features black anti-soiling cuffs to hide grease during manual labor. Many clients stock both — DL1430 for management and winter use, DL1431 for general crews. Contact us to discuss which model fits your program.
This weight is the sweet spot for active industrial use. It provides enough warmth for transitional weather (spring/autumn) or as a layering piece in winter, without being too heavy or bulky for personnel in constant motion. The membrane-free 2-layer construction also allows excess body heat to escape naturally during high-intensity tasks. Contact us for fabric swatch evaluation.
