Product Information
Full details
The DLX Lorimer Softshell Jacket is designed for adult women who need a reliable, versatile outer layer for hiking, camping, and general outdoor exploration. It excels at balancing weather protection with breathability, keeping you dry in light rain and shielded from the wind. While it offers excellent technical performance, users should note that as a softshell garment, it is designed for active movement and may require a heavier insulated layer underneath for extreme sub-zero temperatures.

FAQs
Is this jacket machine washable?
Yes, it can be machine washed. We recommend using a mild, technical detergent and avoiding fabric softeners.
Can I wear this in a downpour?
The jacket has a 10,000mm waterproof rating, making it suitable for moderate rain. In a prolonged heavy downpour, water may eventually penetrate the seams.
Is the hood helmet-compatible?
The hood is designed for general outdoor use with adjustable features, but it is not specifically engineered to fit over climbing or cycling helmets.
How do I adjust the fit?
You can use the drawcord at the hem to cinch the waist and the adjustable tabs at the cuffs to secure the sleeve openings.
Does it have an inner pocket?
The design features a secure chest pocket and two lower zip pockets for your essentials.
What material is this made of?
The jacket is constructed from durable, high-performance polyester.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the fabric surface.
The DWR finish may have worn off. Re-apply a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment according to the manufacturer instructions.
Zippers feel stiff or stuck.
Clear any debris from the zipper teeth and apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or a candle to the teeth to restore smooth movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your jacket performing at its best, ensure all zippers are fully closed when wearing it in wet conditions to maximize water repellency. The hood can be removed or attached using the zipper track located at the collar. For care, wash the jacket in cool water with a technical cleaner specifically designed for softshell garments to maintain the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. Avoid using standard fabric softeners, as they can clog the pores of the fabric and significantly reduce breathability. Always tumble dry on low or hang-dry to preserve the integrity of the polyester material.
