Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your Valley View Jacket, ensure you follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a technical outerwear wash rather than harsh detergents to protect the waterproofing membrane.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry; gentle heat can help reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.
- Storage: Hang the jacket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Compatibility: This garment is designed as an outer layer; it pairs perfectly with The North Face fleece or insulated mid-layers for year-round utility.
- Maintenance: Periodically check that all zippers are clear of debris to ensure smooth operation of the AquaGuard mechanisms.
