Product Information

Full details

The DLX Mens Softshell Jacket Durand is designed for adult males seeking a functional and sustainable outerwear option for outdoor adventures or casual wear. Its key benefit is the blend of waterproof protection and comfort, achieved through a TPU membrane and soft recycled fleece backing. A potential caveat is that its sizing is specific to men, so individuals outside this demographic should carefully check measurements. This jacket features a water-repellent zip, adjustable hood and hem, and adjustable cuffs, making it a versatile choice for various weather conditions.

FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the TPU membrane?

The TPU membrane provides waterproof protection, preventing water from penetrating the fabric while still allowing some breathability.

Can the hood be removed?

Yes, the hood is zip-off, allowing you to remove it for different weather conditions or for a different look.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold winter weather?

The jacket provides warmth due to its fleece backing, but it is designed as a softshell. For very cold conditions, it is best used as a mid-layer over other insulating garments.

How do I adjust the fit at the bottom of the jacket?

The jacket features an adjustable hem drawcord. You can pull this to tighten the hem for a more snug fit and to help seal out cold air.

What does 'softshell' mean in the context of this jacket?

A softshell jacket is typically designed for active use, offering a balance of weather resistance (wind and water repellency), breathability, and stretch, often with a comfortable, soft interior like the fleece backing in this jacket.

How much recycled material is used in this jacket?

The jacket is crafted from 90% recycled polyester and 10% elastane for the main body, and the soft backing is made of 100% recycled polyester.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

Ensure the jacket is clean. Wash according to care instructions and consider applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) re-proofer specifically designed for technical outerwear.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any obstruction. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Fleece lining feels less soft.

This can sometimes occur after washing. Ensure you are using a gentle detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can degrade fleece. Air drying or low-heat tumble drying can help maintain softness.
