Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Columbia Lake 22 Jacket retains its performance, follow these maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade the insulating properties.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat. Adding a couple of clean tennis balls to the dryer can help maintain the loft of the insulation.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid compressing the jacket in tight storage spaces for extended periods to preserve the loft.
- Compatibility: This jacket is compatible with most standard shell layers if you need added wind or water protection.
