Feeling damp inside the vest
Ensure you are not overdressing with non-breathable layers underneath, which can trap sweat inside the vest.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the integrity of the Helly Tech membrane, avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners. Wash on a gentle cycle in cold water and hang to dry. If the outer fabric stops beading water, consider applying a technical garment DWR (Durable Water Repellent) refresh spray. The vest is compatible with most sailing layering systems and can be worn comfortably over base-layer tops or under heavier offshore jackets if temperatures drop significantly.
