OVERVIEW

Stay Cool and Protected with the Lincoln Shadow Hybrid Jacket

Welding is a hot and demanding job, and finding the right gear that doesn't weigh you down is crucial for maintaining focus and precision. The Lincoln Electric K2987-L Shadow Grain Leather Sleeve Welding Jacket (Large) is the solution for welders who are tired of choosing between the heavy protection of full leather and the lightweight comfort of cotton. This hybrid jacket gives you the best of both worlds, ensuring you stay safe without overheating.

Targeted Protection Where You Need It
Your arms are the closest point to the arc, taking the brunt of the spatter and heat. That's why Lincoln Electric designed this jacket with durable split cowhide sleeves. This heavy-duty leather acts as a shield, deflecting sparks and resisting burns that would ruin lesser materials. However, a full leather jacket can be stifling. To combat this, the torso is made from high-quality Flame Retardant cotton. This breathable fabric allows heat to escape, keeping your core temperature down and reducing fatigue during those long beads.

Smart Features for the Modern Welder
Beyond the material, this jacket is packed with features designed by welders, for welders. The front closure system isn't just standard snaps; it includes a special spatter guard lining behind the placket to ensure no stray sparks find their way inside your shirt. The collar flips up and secures with Velcro, protecting your neck from the dreaded "sunburn" caused by UV radiation from the arc. With two spacious pockets protected by flaps, you can keep your phone or tools safe and handy. Whether you are MIG welding in a fabrication shop or TIG welding on a bench, the Lincoln Shadow jacket offers the mobility and protection you need to get the job done right.

FAQ

The K2987-L is a size Large. Lincoln Electric typically sizes these to fit chest measurements appropriate for a standard Large adult fit.

This hybrid jacket features split cowhide leather sleeves for high durability and a flame-retardant (FR) 100% cotton body for breathability.

While the leather sleeves provide excellent protection for overhead work, the cotton body offers less protection against heavy molten slag than a full leather jacket. It is best suited for flat, horizontal, and vertical positions, or applications where the body is not directly under the weld pool.

Because of the leather sleeves, this jacket should not be machine washed. The leather can stiffen or crack if soaked. Spot clean the leather and cotton with a damp cloth or use specialized leather cleaning products.

Yes, it features two large outside pockets with Hook and Loop flaps to keep debris out and secure your items.

The flip-up collar with Hook and Loop closure protects the welder's neck from UV radiation (arc burn) and prevents sparks from going down the shirt collar.

Yes, the leather sleeves make it suitable for Stick welding where spatter is common, though it is marketed heavily for MIG and TIG due to the comfort of the cotton body.
