FAQs
What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?
The Beachcomber jacket is ideal for mild, wet, and windy conditions typical of spring and summer. It provides protection against rain and wind while remaining breathable for comfort during moderate activity.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the hood is concealed and integrated into the jacket's design. It can be adjusted and stored away when not in use.
How do I know if I need to re-proof the jacket?
If water no longer beads up on the fabric and instead soaks in, or if the jacket feels damp internally after light rain, it is likely time to re-proof it.
Can I wear a fleece under this jacket?
Yes, the jacket is designed with a jersey lining and has a relaxed fit, allowing space for a light to medium-weight fleece or jumper for added warmth in cooler temperatures.
What is the waterproof rating?
The jacket has a waterproof rating of 3000mm, suitable for moderate rainfall. It also has a breathability rating of 3000gsm.
Does the jacket have many pockets?
Yes, it features two secure zipped front pockets and one internal zipped pocket, providing ample and safe storage for essentials.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof.
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and apply a waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment suitable for polyester and breathable fabrics. Ensure you follow the product's re-proofing instructions carefully.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or salt. You can then lubricate the zipper with a graphite pencil (rubbing the tip along the teeth) or a specialized zipper lubricant.
Jacket feels clammy inside.
This may indicate reduced breathability. Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the membrane. If the issue persists, the fabric's breathability may be compromised over time or due to heavy soiling.
Hood drawcords are tangled or difficult to adjust.
Gently untangle the drawcords. If they are particularly stiff, you can try moistening the cord slightly where it passes through the eyelets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Lighthouse Beachcomber Waterproof Jacket requires no assembly. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. Ensure the zipper pulls are free and the hood drawcords are adjusted to your preference before use.
Compatibility: This jacket is designed for adult women. It pairs well with a variety of casual and outdoor wear, including jeans, leggings, and walking trousers. It is suitable for activities such as walking, commuting, and general outdoor leisure.
Care Instructions: To maintain the jacket's performance and appearance:
- Washing: Machine washable at 30°C.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners or bleach, as these can compromise the waterproof and breathable properties.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat or hang to dry. Do not dry clean.
- Re-proofing: If the jacket's water-repellency decreases over time, consider using a re-proofing spray designed for outdoor apparel.
