Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Maltrek jacket, adhere to the following care instructions:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner recommended for waterproof breathable fabrics. Avoid biological detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If you use a tumble dryer, use a low heat setting to help reactivate the water-repellent finish.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place on a wide hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and the hood structure.
- Compatibility: The jacket fits true to size as an outer layer. If you intend to wear heavy mid-layers underneath, ensure you have verified your sizing, as the insulation already provides a significant base layer of warmth.
