Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket remains waterproof, always follow these care instructions. Machine wash the garment on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner designed for waterproof fabrics; avoid using standard detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the breathable membrane. To reactivate the water-repellent finish, tumble dry on a low setting or iron on a cool setting. Ensure the front zip is fully closed before storage to maintain the structural integrity of the drainage groove. When layering, the Maltrek pairs best with thin moisture-wicking base layers to maximize the efficiency of the breathability system.
