This 3 layer polyester microfiber softshell fabric is a flexible option for many types of garments that need to be lightweight, weather-resistant and comfortable:
Softshell jackets for outdoor and sports brands
Company and team jackets for corporate wear and uniforms
Workwear and functional clothing for light industrial or service environments
Hiking, trekking and travel jackets where packability and comfort matter
Casual outerwear and school uniforms for autumn and early winter
Compared with heavy rainwear or stiff coated fabrics, this laminated softshell gives a softer handfeel and better wearing comfort. The microfiber face offers a more refined surface, suitable for both performance and casual styles. The TPU membrane and DWR finishing protect the wearer from rain and wind, while the polar fleece backing provides warmth and a soft touch, reducing the need for additional inner layers.
The 250gsm weight makes this fabric suitable for mid-weight jackets that can be used as an outer layer in cool weather or as a protective shell over mid-layers in colder conditions. Garment makers can design modern silhouettes with less bulk, and end users will get a jacket that feels comfortable in daily wear as well as light outdoor activities.
For importers and brands, this fabric helps create a value-for-money softshell range that balances cost, performance and appearance – especially in markets where polyester microfiber face and fleece back constructions are popular.
