Product Information
Full details
The Lighthouse Clothing Beachcomber Waterproof Jacket is designed for adult women who need a stylish yet functional outer layer for transitional weather. Its primary benefit is the combination of a fully waterproof and windproof exterior with a soft, comfortable jersey lining, ensuring protection from the elements without the bulkiness of heavy winter coats. While it excels in daily commutes and light outdoor activities, users should note that its lightweight construction is best suited for moderate rain and wind rather than extreme mountain conditions.

Troubleshooting
Water soaking into the outer fabric
The DWR finish may have worn off; wash the jacket and re-apply a DWR spray treatment to restore water repellency.
Stubborn stains on the shell
Gently spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh scrubbing that could damage the fabric texture.
Jacket feels less breathable than expected
Ensure you are not wearing heavy synthetic layers underneath; stick to breathable base layers like cotton or merino wool.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the jacket features a technical waterproof shell, proper care is essential to maintain its performance. When washing, ensure all pockets are emptied and zippers are closed. Use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can strip away the water-repellent finish. It is recommended to hang the jacket to air dry, as high heat from a tumble dryer can damage the lining and the waterproof coating. If the jacket loses its water-beading capability over time, consider using a standard DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to refresh the outer shell.
