Can I tumble dry this jacket?

Troubleshooting
Jacket not repelling water effectively
Ensure the jacket is clean and free from dirt or debris, which can impede water repellency. Follow the specific washing instructions (wash separately, 30°C) and consider re-applying a suitable water-repellent treatment if the effect diminishes over time.
Studs are difficult to fasten or unfasten
Gently try to align the studs before fastening. If they feel stiff, use a small amount of wax (like beeswax) on the male part of the stud. Avoid forcing them, which could cause damage.
Material appears faded or discolored
This can sometimes occur with polyamide fabrics. Ensure you are washing at the recommended temperature (30°C) and avoiding harsh detergents or direct sunlight during drying. Wash separately as per care instructions.
