Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket is a straightforward "put on and go" garment. To maintain the effectiveness of the water-repellent finish, ensure you wash the jacket on a gentle cycle using a technical detergent designed for outdoor clothing. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the DWR coating. For drying, a low-heat tumble cycle can help restore the loft of the synthetic padding, but always check the care label inside the garment for specific temperature limits. If the water-repellent performance drops over time, consider re-applying a standard DWR spray treatment after washing.
