Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the high-performance capabilities of the Ponsa jacket, proper care is essential:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner designed for waterproof shells. Avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores of the breathable membrane.
- DWR Maintenance: Periodically re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray after washing if you notice water no longer beads off the outer fabric.
- Storage: Hang the jacket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid folding it tightly for long periods to preserve the fabric's integrity.
- Layering: Ensure you wear appropriate moisture-wicking base layers underneath to maximize the efficiency of the jacket's breathability features.
