Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Altura gilet in top condition, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C using a mild technical garment detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they degrade the DWR coating.
- Drying: Air dry naturally. If the garment loses its water-repellent performance, you may tumble dry on a low heat setting to reactivate the DWR finish, provided the care label permits.
- Compatibility: The relaxed fit makes this compatible with most cycling jerseys and base layers. It is best paired with arm warmers for full-arm protection during colder rides.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the recycled insulation.
