Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket remains waterproof over time, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wash in cold water using a mild technical detergent specifically formulated for waterproof garments. Avoid biological detergents or fabric softeners as these can strip the DWR coating.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
- Re-treating: Over time, if water stops beading on the surface, use a DWR reproofing spray to restore the factory finish.
- Storage: Hang in a cool, dry place on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the shape of the insulation and the structure of the hood.
