Full details

The DLX Samantha Eco Softshell Jacket is an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts who require reliable protection against the elements without sacrificing comfort or sustainability. Designed specifically for women, this garment offers a sophisticated balance of a protective TPU membrane and a cozy, textured fleece interior, making it perfect for transitional weather and light outdoor activities. While it provides excellent wind and water resistance for daily wear, users should note that as a softshell design, it is intended for aerobic activity and light rain rather than extreme, sustained alpine conditions.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

It is water-resistant thanks to the TPU membrane and water-repellent zipper, making it suitable for light to moderate rain, but it is not classified as fully waterproof for downpours.

Can I put this in the dryer?

It is recommended to air dry the jacket to avoid damaging the specialized fabric membrane with excessive heat.

Does the hood detach completely?

Yes, the hood features a zip-off mechanism allowing you to remove it entirely for a cleaner look.

How does the size XL fit?

The jacket follows standard sizing conventions, but the longer cut provides a slightly more relaxed silhouette around the hips.

Is the material stretchy?

The softshell material offers natural movement, providing flexibility for hiking and active outdoor pursuits.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric instead of beading off

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray according to the product instructions.

Jacket feels less breathable than before

Sweat and dirt buildup may be blocking the membrane. Ensure you wash the item according to care instructions to clear the pores.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your jacket, always zip up all zippers before laundering to prevent snagging. Wash on a gentle, cool cycle using a technical detergent designed for softshell membranes to preserve breathability. Avoid fabric softeners as they can clog the membrane pores. Hang dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators. To maintain water repellency, consider applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray after several washes if you notice water no longer beads off the surface.
