Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the surface fabric
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has worn off. Reapply a spray-on DWR treatment suitable for Gore-Tex garments.
Interior moisture buildup during activity
While breathable, Gore-Tex has limits. Ensure you are layering with moisture-wicking synthetic or wool base layers rather than cotton.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment requires no assembly. To ensure compatibility, choose your standard size, keeping in mind that the jacket is cut to allow for layering. To maintain the waterproof properties, avoid traditional detergents and fabric softeners. Instead, use a technical gear wash specifically designed for Gore-Tex fabrics. After washing, tumble dry on a low setting or hang dry in a shaded area to reactivate the water-repellent coating. Always check the internal garment tag for the most specific care instructions regarding heat and machine settings.
