Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your jacket functioning at its peak, proper maintenance is essential.
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can strip the DWR coating.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If the instructions permit, tumble dry on a low heat setting to help reactivate the water-repellent finish.
- Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a cool, dry area. Avoid folding the jacket tightly for long periods to preserve the taped seams.
- Compatibility: This jacket serves as an effective outer layer. Due to the fleece lining, it fits comfortably over base layers or thin mid-layers like light shirts or sweaters.
