Setup, Compatibility & Care
This vest is designed as an easy-to-wear layer that pairs effectively over long-sleeve performance tops or under heavier foul-weather gear depending on the season. To maintain its technical integrity, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Use a mild, technical-fabric-specific detergent. Avoid harsh powders or fabric softeners that can clog the breathable pores of the membrane.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible to preserve the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating. If using a machine, select a low-heat, gentle cycle.
- Re-activation: If water stops beading on the surface of the fabric, tumble dry on low heat for 10-15 minutes to help reactivate the water-repellent finish.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature material degradation.
