Full details
The LeMieux Softshell Jacket is an ideal choice for equestrian enthusiasts and outdoor workers who need a balance between technical weather protection and a professional, tailored aesthetic.

Is the jacket fully waterproof?

Troubleshooting
Waterproofing seems less effective over time
Wash the jacket to remove dirt or oil buildup which can inhibit the DWR finish, and consider using a tech-wash re-proofer if necessary.
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Clear any debris from the zipper track and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant if necessary to restore smooth operation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket requires no formal setup. To maintain the water-resistant properties, machine wash the garment on a gentle, cool cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the technical fabric pores and reduce breathability. Always close all zippers before laundering to prevent damage to the teeth. Air drying is recommended to preserve the integrity of the water-resistant coating. If you intend to personalise the jacket, use the internal embroidery zip to access the back panel, ensuring you do not pierce through the outer waterproof layer.
