Blauer Softshell Fleece Jacket | 4660 Another Blauer first. Unfortunately the early fleece looked a lot like children's sleepwear and most Chiefs would not allow its use as an outerwear substitute. Our search ended with the introduction of softshells. Blauer softshells are made using a proprietary stretch nylon faced fabric that won't pick, pill or fade like ordinary fleece and softshells. The backing is a warm and comfortable medium weight micro fleece. The end result is a neat looking uniform duty jacket that is weather resistant, warm, and practical. Even the Chief loves these for the professional appearance they present. Beware there are many companies offering softshells made using polyester shell fabric which is prone to unprofessional picking and pilling. All of the Blauer softshell styles can be worn alone or as a warm winter liner in our Systems Outerwear. Customization such as emblems and insignia are also easily added. Easy care materials can be home laundered.
