Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your jacket, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical garment cleaner. Do not use biological detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the H2OShield treatment and clog the membrane pores.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting if recommended by the care label, or hang-dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
- Re-treating: Over time, you will notice water stop beading on the surface. Apply a spray-on or wash-in DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to restore the H2OShield finish.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place on a hanger to maintain its shape and avoid compression of the seams.
