Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Saikuru jacket stays in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water using a mild, technical garment detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the pores of the fabric and damage the DWR coating.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help redistribute the insulation and maintain the jacket's loft.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid compressing the jacket in a tight bag for long periods to prevent permanent flattening of the insulation.
- Re-treating: Over time, if water stops beading on the surface, consider applying a spray-on DWR replenishment treatment specifically designed for synthetic outdoor gear.
