Product Information

Full details

The DLX Strathbeg Waterproof Jacket is an essential outer layer for adult outdoor enthusiasts, such as hikers and climbers, who require reliable protection against unpredictable weather. Its standout benefit is the combination of a 10,000mm waterproof rating and 5,000mvp breathability, which keeps you dry without sacrificing comfort during strenuous movement. Please note that while the jacket is highly durable and windproof, it is designed primarily as a performance shell rather than an insulated winter coat, so you may need to layer appropriately in sub-zero temperatures.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for winter sports?

It is an excellent outer shell, but because it lacks heavy insulation, you should wear a thermal base layer and a fleece mid-layer underneath for warmth.

How do I maintain the waterproof rating?

Keep the jacket clean. Dirt and oil can clog the breathable pores of the membrane, so follow the care instructions provided on the garment label regularly.

Does the hood detach?

No, the Strathbeg features a 'grown-on' hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket for superior wind and rain sealing.

Can I iron this jacket?

It is generally not recommended to iron waterproof technical gear, as the heat can damage the waterproof membrane and seam tape.

What is the fit of the DLX Strathbeg?

It is designed as an active, outdoor fit, allowing enough room for standard mid-layers while remaining streamlined to prevent catching on branches or gear.

Troubleshooting

Water appears to be soaking into the outer fabric

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Re-apply a spray-on or wash-in water-repellent treatment and tumble dry on a low setting if the care label permits.

Feeling damp inside the jacket during activity

Ensure you are not overdressed underneath. The 5,000mvp breathability requires a temperature differential to work; removing a base layer may improve airflow.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to pull

Check for debris or dirt caught in the teeth and gently clean with a soft brush. Applying a small amount of silicone-based zipper lubricant can also restore smooth movement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High waterproof rating suitable for heavy downpours

  • Windproof construction offers protection against chilling gusts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your DLX Strathbeg, proper maintenance is vital. We recommend washing the garment in cool water on a gentle cycle using a technical detergent specifically designed for waterproof outerwear; avoid using standard fabric softeners as these can strip the durable water repellent (DWR) coating. Always air dry the jacket away from direct heat sources to prevent damage to the bonded seams. When packing for a trip, the jacket is compatible with most mid-layer fleece options, making it easy to create a layering system for varying temperatures.
