Velilla 206009 lightweight padded jacket: warmth that fits in your backpack
Padded, yes, but genuinely lightweight: the outer is a 40 g/m² polyamide — fine nylon that weighs next to nothing — with 125 g/m² padding. So that lightness does not cost durability, Velilla adds 265 g/m² technical stretch fabric reinforcements on the inner sleeves and sides, and a stretch chest panel for branding.
✅ Features
40 g/m² nylon outer: 100% polyamide. Folds up, takes little space and adds no bulk under another garment.
125 g/m² padding: mid-season warmth, half that of the 108 padded vest.
265 g/m² stretch reinforcements on the inner sleeves and sides, where rubbing is greatest.
Technical stretch fabric chest panel: stable base for embroidery and screen printing.
Reverse zip with inner storm flap folded over the top.
Cuffs and hem with contrast elastic binding: keep out drafts and give a snug fit.
Three zipped welt pockets.
👷 Suitable for
Technical sales and customer visits: keeps you warm without spoiling the silhouette.
Mid-layer under a jacket or parka in the depths of winter.
Logistics, delivery and warehousing in mid-season.
Maintenance and technical support with lots of going in and out.
Teams that need a warm garment that can be kept in the car without taking up space.

🧺 Care
Machine wash on a gentle cycle at low temperature, with zips closed.
Do not wring: the 125 g/m² padding shifts inside the quilted channels.
Dry flat, shaking the garment to redistribute the padding.
Do not iron: the 40 g/m² nylon melts under direct heat.
💡 Tip: Don't compare it with the 108 padded vest by the number alone: 125 g/m² of padding versus 220 g/m² is not a small difference, it is roughly half the warmth. This jacket is for mid-season or as a second layer; on its own it falls short for working outdoors in January. Its advantage is different: it weighs almost nothing, folds up and fits anywhere, which is why it's the one that stays in the car all year round.
