Product Information
Full details
The DLX Lossie Hooded Waterproof Jacket is designed for adult women who enjoy hiking, walking, and general outdoor exploration in unpredictable weather. The primary benefit of this jacket is its robust 2.5-layer waterproof membrane, which provides reliable protection against rain while maintaining a lightweight profile. While it excels in wet conditions, users should note that as a lightweight shell, it is best utilized as an outer layer in a layering system for varying temperatures.
