CUSTOM Soft Shell Jackets MANUFACTURER
Wind and water-resistant soft shell jackets with a bonded fleece lining, manufactured in-house with a low minimum order of 50 pieces per design.
Custom Soft Shell Jackets Manufacturing
Star Faith International manufactures soft shell jackets for outdoor, corporate uniform, and team outerwear programmes that need a flexible, breathable mid-layer jacket rather than a rigid hard shell. Cutting, bonding, and sewing all happen inside our own facility, so the fabric lamination and finished garment stay consistent across every unit.
A soft shell jacket’s performance comes from a bonded, multi-layer fabric construction: an outer woven face resists wind and light water, laminated directly to an inner fleece or micro-fleece layer for warmth and stretch. This differs from a hard shell, which uses a separate coating rather than a bonded fabric layer.
Why Brands Choose Our Soft Shell Jackets
- Genuine garment-dye process — the mottled effect comes from real drum washing, not a printed distressed patter
- Consistent base colour control — we calibrate wash time and agent concentration so batches land within an approved colour range.
- Heavyweight fleece construction — 300-400 GSM brushed fleece holds structure through the wash process without excessive shrinkage
- Low minimum order — 50 pieces per design and colourway, workable for seasonal capsule drops.
- Additional decoration after wash — embroidery, DTG, or puff print can be applied post-wash so graphics sit on the finished, faded base.
Fabric, Fit, and Customization Options
Soft shell jackets are built with a bonded three-layer fabric: a woven or brushed outer face, a windproof-breathable membrane, and an inner fleece lining. We support full-zip construction with stand or hooded collars, in regular and athletic fits.
Common add-ons include embroidered chest logos, zippered hand and chest pockets, adjustable hem drawcords, and reflective piping for visibility. Private label packaging with woven inner labels and hang tags can be added without changing the standard MOQ.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a soft shell and a hard shell jacket?
A soft shell uses a bonded, multi-layer fabric for stretch and breathability, while a hard shell uses a separate waterproof coating for higher water resistance but less flexibility.
Is a soft shell jacket fully waterproof?
No, it is wind and light water resistant; for sustained heavy rain or snow exposure, our puffer or ski jacket lines with taped seams are better suited.
Can logos be embroidered on soft shell jackets?
Yes, embroidery and DTG printing are both available on the jacket.
Is the fleece lining removable?
The fleece is bonded directly to the outer fabric as a single laminated layer and is not designed to be removable.
What is your minimum order quantity?
50 pieces per design, per colourway.
How long does the wash process add to lead time?
Acid wash hoodies ship in 12-16 working days after sample approval, slightly longer than an unwashed hoodie to allow for the dye and dry cycle.
