Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the jacket maintains its technical performance over time, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner recommended for waterproof garments. Avoid biological detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR coating.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the waterproofing layers.
- Re-treating: If you notice water no longer beads off the fabric, use a spray-on or wash-in DWR re-proofer to restore the performance.
- Storage: Hang the jacket in a well-ventilated space rather than folding it tightly, which helps preserve the integrity of the breathable membrane.
