FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for deep winter?
Yes, the padded insulation provides good thermal retention, though adding a technical fleece layer underneath is recommended for extreme cold.
Can I put this jacket in the tumble dryer?
Check the care label; typically, low heat can help reactivate the DWR coating, but high heat may damage the waterproof membrane.
What does 20000mm waterproof mean?
It means the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 20,000mm water column placed on it before moisture leaks through, indicating very high protection.
Is the hood adjustable?
The hood features a secure fit and can be completely removed via the integrated zipper.
How do I choose the right size?
The jacket follows standard sizing. Measure your chest circumference and compare it with the size chart to ensure a comfortable fit for layering.
Troubleshooting
Water appears to be soaking into the outer fabric
The DWR coating may have worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical garment cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray treatment.
Feeling damp inside despite no rain leaks
This is likely moisture buildup. Ensure you are layering with breathable base layers rather than cotton, which holds onto sweat.
Zip-off hood keeps detaching
Check the zipper track for debris or fabric caught in the teeth, and ensure the zipper is fully engaged into the locking pull.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your DLX Oswarm jacket, it is essential to follow proper care protocols. Always check the internal garment tag for specific washing instructions. Generally, use a non-biological detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can strip the technical membrane of its waterproof properties. If the water-repellent coating begins to fail over time, you can apply a professional-grade DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray after a wash to restore performance. When storing, keep the jacket hung on a sturdy hanger in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent mildew or compression of the padding.
