Product Information
Full details
The LeMieux Softshell Jacket is designed for adult equestrians and outdoor enthusiasts who require a professional look that stands up to rugged yard work and changing weather. Its primary benefit is the combination of water-resistant, breathable fabric with a tailored, ergonomic fit that allows for complete freedom of movement during active tasks, though users should note that the hood is detachable rather than stowable, which may require careful storage when removed.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket is water-resistant, meaning it is highly effective against light rain and wind, but it is not intended for heavy, sustained downpours.
Can I use this for horse riding?
Yes, the two-way zipper and tailored fit make it specifically suited for riding comfort.
How do I attach the hood?
The hood is designed to be easily attached and detached via a secure snap or zip interface located at the collar.
Can I add custom embroidery?
Yes, the jacket includes an internal embroidery access zip that allows for easy professional personalization.
Does it have enough pocket space?
It features a spacious internal pocket for your phone or other essentials, keeping them protected from the elements.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the outer fabric
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may need to be refreshed with a technical DWR spray after washing.
Zip becomes stiff or difficult to pull
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and gently clean with a soft brush to remove any dirt or arena dust.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the water-resistant coating, wash the jacket in cool water with a mild, technical detergent designed for outdoor gear. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the breathable membrane of its performance capabilities.
- Compatibility: Ideal for use with base layers or thin fleeces underneath.
- Personalization: Use the internal embroidery access zip to have your name or team logo added without ruining the outer shell fabric.
- Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger to maintain the tailored shape and ensure the hood is stored in a clean, dry place if detached.
