FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, the DLX Jowita is made of polyester fleece, which is designed for warmth rather than water resistance. It should be paired with a waterproof outer shell in rainy weather.
Does the hood have an adjustable drawcord?
The jacket features a 'grown-on' hood design, which is structured for a snug fit without the need for traditional drawcords.
Is this suitable for high-intensity winter sports?
It serves as an excellent mid-layer for winter sports, providing warmth while breathing well, but should be worn under appropriate protective outerwear.
How do I determine my size?
The jacket follows standard sizing. We recommend checking your chest and waist measurements against our provided size chart to ensure a proper fit for layering.
Can I put this jacket in the tumble dryer?
It is recommended to air dry the jacket. High heat from a tumble dryer can cause the polyester fibers to lose their loft and structural integrity.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is sticking or not moving smoothly
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. If it remains stuck, apply a tiny amount of wax or graphite to the teeth to lubricate the mechanism.
Fleece feels less warm after several washes
This may be caused by the build-up of detergent residue. Try an extra rinse cycle without adding soap to flush out the fibers.
Small lint or pills appearing on the surface
Use a fabric shaver or a de-pilling tool specifically designed for soft synthetic garments to restore a smooth appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your DLX Jowita jacket, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30 degrees Celsius. Avoid using harsh biological detergents or fabric softeners, as these can compromise the performance of the fleece fibers.
- Drying: Air dry the garment on a hanger away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the synthetic material.
- Storage: Store in a dry, cool place. Ensure all zippers are closed before hanging to prevent the teeth from snagging on other clothing items.
- Compatibility: This jacket is designed to be worn as a mid-layer. It fits perfectly underneath standard-sized waterproof hard-shell jackets without creating excessive bulk around the shoulders or chest.
