Setup, Compatibility & Care

Use a gentle or delicate machine cycle with a low temperature setting and a mild liquid detergent. For drying, use a tumble dry cycle on low heat; including dryer balls in the machine will help evenly distribute the padding inside. Always avoid using an iron on this garment to prevent damage to the waterproof coating and fabric texture.
