Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Dare 2b Eagle IV, keep the DWR finish functioning properly by washing with technical gear detergents rather than standard laundry soap, as harsh chemicals can strip the treatment. Always close all zippers and fasten hook-and-loop closures before washing to prevent snagging. Tumble dry on a low heat setting to help reactivate the water-repellent coating. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use during the off-season. Because this jacket features a grown-on hood, it is designed for a streamlined helmet-compatible fit, providing maximum coverage without requiring constant adjustments.
