Product Information
Full details
The DLX Donahue Padded Rainwear Jacket is an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts and commuters who need reliable, heavy-duty protection against wet and cold weather. It balances waterproof durability with added thermal padding for warmth, though its longer length and substantial construction make it less suited for high-intensity aerobic activities where breathability is the primary concern.

FAQs
Is the hood fully adjustable?
Yes, the hood is designed to be adjustable and can also be zipped off entirely if you prefer a different look or are wearing headgear.
What is the primary material used?
The jacket is made from high-quality, durable polyester engineered to be both water-resistant and wind-resistant.
Does this jacket have internal pockets?
The jacket focuses on external utility with two zipped chest pockets and two double-entry lower pockets for maximum accessibility.
Is this suitable for freezing temperatures?
The jacket includes padding for warmth, but it should be layered with fleece or base layers for extreme cold or below-freezing temperatures.
How should I clean the jacket?
Wash on a gentle cycle with a technical cleaner. Always follow the specific care label instructions found on the inner garment tag.
How does the sizing run?
The jacket is available in standard adult sizing; the XL size provides a generous fit suitable for wearing over heavier mid-layers.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking through the outer fabric
The DWR finish may have worn off; apply a technical re-proofing spray to the outer shell and tumble dry on a low setting as directed by the bottle to reactivate water repellency.
Zipper sticking or difficult to pull
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove grit or debris, then apply a small amount of silicone lubricant or a graphite pencil lead to the teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the waterproof coating, avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners when washing; instead, use a technical gear cleaner. Always zip all pockets closed before washing to prevent damage to the zippers or the fabric. The jacket is designed for adult men, and the XL fit offers a relaxed profile for layering. For maximum water repellency, it is recommended to occasionally treat the exterior fabric with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray once you notice water no longer beads off the surface.
