300 g/m² brushed knit jacket with soft shell reinforcements
Velilla 206008 brushed knit jacket: the fleece that doesn't wear through at the shoulders
An ordinary fleece tears where it rubs: shoulders, inner sleeves and sides. This jacket is made of 300 g/m² brushed knit — considerably denser than 220 fleece — and adds 330 g/m² soft shell panels in the tear-prone areas. It also has soft shell on the chest, placed there deliberately so the logo stands out clearly.

🧺 Care
Machine wash at 30°, inside out and with the zip closed.
No fabric softener: it mats the brushed knit.
Do not iron: the elastane in the soft shell panels cannot withstand direct heat.
Air dry, no tumble dryer.
💡 Tip: If you are going to customise the garment, ask for the branding on the soft shell chest panel rather than on the brushed knit. Brushed knit has pile and texture: screen printing cracks and embroidery sinks in. Soft shell is smooth and stable and holds the branding for many more washes. That panel is there precisely for that.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it a fleece?
It is 300 g/m2 brushed knit, denser and more hard-wearing than the 220 g/m2 fleece in the range.
Where are the reinforcements?
On the shoulders, inner sleeves and sides, which are the areas where a fleece wears through first.
Why is there soft shell on the chest?
For branding. Brushed knit has pile and screen printing cracks; soft shell is smooth and holds up much better.
Where is the best place for the logo?
On the soft shell chest panel, never on the brushed knit.
Can it be ironed?
No. The soft shell panels contain elastane and cannot withstand direct heat.
Can I use fabric softener?
No. It mats the brushed knit.
What combinations are available?
Black/black, grey/black and navy blue/black, in sizes XS to 3XL.
