Product Information
Full details
The DLX Carlotta Padded Rainwear Jacket is designed for adult women who require a reliable, high-performance outer layer for outdoor activities in challenging climates. Its standout benefit is the impressive combination of 20000mm waterproofing and 10000mvp breathability, ensuring you stay dry without overheating. While the jacket offers excellent thermal insulation through its padded filling, users should note that the substantial padding provides a more structured silhouette compared to standard unlined shell jackets.

FAQs
Is this jacket machine washable?
Yes, but it is recommended to use a gentle cycle with a dedicated technical fabric cleaner to protect the waterproof membrane.
Can I wear this in deep winter?
The jacket includes a warm padded filling, making it suitable for moderate to cold winter temperatures, though layering may be necessary in extreme sub-zero conditions.
How do I know if the size fits correctly?
The jacket should feel comfortable with enough room for a base or mid-layer underneath without restricting your movement.
What does 20000mm waterproofing mean?
It means the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 20,000mm column of water over a specific area before moisture begins to leak through, indicating high-level protection.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the Carlotta features a 'grown-on' hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket for maximum weather protection.
Are the seams sealed?
Yes, the jacket features taped seams to prevent water from entering through the stitching points.
Troubleshooting
Water appears to be soaking into the outer fabric
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need refreshing. Apply a specialized spray-on DWR treatment after washing the jacket.
Breathability feels reduced
Wash the jacket using a technical detergent to remove built-up dirt and oils that can clog the pores of the membrane.
Zippers feel stiff or stuck
Check for fabric caught in the teeth, and gently clean the zipper track with a soft brush to remove any dirt or grit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your DLX Carlotta jacket, prioritize gentle cleaning methods. Use technical gear cleaners rather than harsh detergents, which can strip the waterproof coating. Always rinse the jacket thoroughly and avoid fabric softeners, as these can clog the breathable pores of the fabric. Ensure the garment is completely dry before storage to prevent mold or odors. For the best fit, utilize the adjustable cuff tabs to seal out rain when wearing gloves, and adjust the hood toggle until you achieve a clear field of vision while maintaining a secure, weather-tight fit.
