Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the integrity of the jacket's waterproof membrane, ensure that the zippers are fully closed before washing. Use a technical garment cleaner specifically designed for waterproof, breathable fabrics rather than standard laundry detergent, as standard soap can degrade the durable water repellent (DWR) coating.
Care Instructions:
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cool water.
- Do not use fabric softeners, as they clog the pores of the waterproof material.
- Tumble dry on low heat, or air dry away from direct sunlight to preserve the synthetic insulation's loft.
- Re-apply a DWR spray periodically if you notice water no longer beads off the surface of the fabric.
