Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your gear, keep the following in mind:
- Compatibility: The hood is specifically designed for ski helmets. If wearing a beanie alone, you may need to cinch the hood adjustment to maintain visibility.
- Layering: Due to the streamlined fit, prioritize technical base layers and light mid-layers (such as fleece) rather than bulky down sweaters to maintain comfort.
- Cleaning: Always follow the care label instructions. Use a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear, as standard laundry soaps can strip the durable water repellent (DWR) coating.
- Maintenance: Periodically check that the zipper tracks are clear of debris to ensure a smooth operation, and hang the jacket to dry naturally after a wet day on the slopes.
