Water appears to soak into the outer layer

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Flotte jacket in peak condition, always check the internal care label before washing. Generally, because of the heat-taped seams and polyester finish, it is recommended to wash the jacket in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid using harsh chemical bleaches, which can degrade the water-resistant coating. To maintain the jacket's waterproof properties, hang it to dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as high heat can potentially damage the taped seams and press-stud hardware. Since this is a unisex design, verify the size guide based on your preferred layering; if you plan to wear thick sweaters underneath, you may consider sizing up.
