Jackets and down jackets Uhlsport

Which jacket or down jacket Uhlsport should you choose for football?

Your choice mainly depends on when you plan to wear the item: during warm-up, while playing a match in cold weather, or while sitting on the bench watching your teammates play. This selection includes two types of products Uhlsport, the waterproof jacket and the down jacket, available in both children's and adults' versions. If you're looking for protection against wind and rain while being active, a waterproof jacket like the Uhlsport Score Waterproof Jacket would be better for you. If you want to stay warm while stationary, before or after training, a down jacket like the Uhlsport Essential Down Jacket or the Uhlsport Essential Ultra Lite Down Jacket would be more suitable.

Waterproof jacket or down jacket Uhlsport: how to tell them apart?

The down jacket, it, is mainly focused on thermal insulation and is typically worn while stationary, on the way to the pitch or on the bench. In the catalogue, you'll find classic down jackets, lighter sleeveless versions, and hooded models for extra protection around the neck and head. The Uhlsport Essential Coach Jacket it is more suited for coaching or pre-match use rather than intensive training.

Frequently asked questions

How can I tell if a child's Uhlsport down jacket will also fit a larger teenager?

Children's down jackets Uhlsport are generally cut for younger body types, with sizes that increase gradually. For a teenager close to adult size, it's best to compare the measurements on the product sheet with a garment they already wear, rather than relying solely on the indicated age.

Can a waterproof Uhlsport jacket be worn over a club training shirt?

Yes, the waterproof jacket is designed to be worn over a training layer, like a shirt or technical top. That's exactly its purpose: to protect from wind and rain without restricting movement during training.

Is the Uhlsport Essential Coach Jacket only for coaches?

No, there's nothing stopping a player or a companion from wearing it. Its style and cut are more suited to coaching or pre-match use, but it remains a classic jacket usable by anyone attending a training session or a match on the sidelines.

What's the difference between a sleeveless down jacket and a classic Uhlsport down jacket?

The sleeveless down jacket allows for free movement of the arms, which can be useful for maintaining mobility during warm-ups while keeping the torso warm. The classic down jacket, with sleeves, covers more of the body and is better suited for stationary use, on the bench or outside of exertion.

How should I care for a waterproof jacket or a down jacket Uhlsport to keep it in good condition?

It’s recommended to follow the washing instructions on the garment label, as they vary depending on the waterproof treatment or insulation used. Generally, washing at low temperatures and avoiding fabric softeners helps to preserve the waterproof effect or thermal insulation of the product for longer.
