Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket remains waterproof, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Washing: Close all zips and hook-and-loop fasteners. Wash on a gentle cycle using a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. Do not use harsh chemicals or fabric softeners, as these can strip the durable water-repellent (DWR) finish.
- Re-proofing: If water stops beading on the surface, use a DWR-restoring spray or wash-in treatment to reactivate the protective barrier.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place on a hanger to prevent creasing and damage to the membrane.
