Product Information
Full details
The DLX Carlotta Padded Rainwear Jacket is designed for adult women who need a reliable, insulated layer that protects against harsh, wet weather. Its primary benefit is the combination of waterproof external material and a warm internal filling, making it perfect for cold, rainy days outdoors. One caveat to keep in mind is that the jacket is made from polyester, which requires specific care to maintain its weather-resistant properties over time.

FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
Yes, it is designed as a rainwear jacket with a water-resistant polyester outer shell, though it is recommended to keep zippers fully closed to maintain protection.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, you can machine wash it on a gentle cycle, but always use a technical detergent for synthetic outdoor gear.
How do I know which size to choose?
The jacket comes in standard sizing from XS to XXL. Check your measurements against a standard apparel size guide to ensure a comfortable fit with room for layering underneath.
Does it have a removable hood?
No, this jacket features a grown-on (fixed) hood designed for a more secure seal against the elements.
Are the pockets waterproof?
The pockets are zipped to provide secure storage, but they are not strictly 'dry bags,' so it is advised to use a small dry bag for sensitive electronics in extreme downpours.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the fabric instead of beading off
The DWR coating has worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray treatment.
Zipper feels stiff or difficult to close
Check for debris or fabric caught in the teeth. Gently clean with a soft brush and apply a small amount of zipper lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket remains effective, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Close all zippers before placing the jacket in the machine. Use a mild, technical cleaner designed for waterproof garments.
- Drying: Air dry the garment whenever possible. Avoid high-heat drying, which can damage the synthetic filling and the waterproof coating.
- Re-proofing: Over time, you may need to apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to the exterior to maintain the jacket's ability to bead water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place on a wide hanger to help the padding retain its loft.
