Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the jacket's waterproof capabilities, ensure you keep the fabric clean of mud and debris. Wash the garment on a gentle cycle using technical gear cleaners that do not strip away the durable water repellent (DWR) finish. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can block the pores of the ISOTEX membrane and reduce breathability. When adjusting the shock cord hem, pull evenly from both sides to ensure a balanced seal. Always store the jacket in a dry, well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, which can damage the synthetic insulation over time.
