Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no specific "setup" required for the parka. However, to ensure optimal performance and longevity, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash cold with similar colors. Use a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners.
- Drying: Tumble dry low. For best results, add a tennis ball to the dryer to help restore the loft of the insulation.
- Waterproofing: The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish will eventually wear off with use. To restore the water repellency, reapply a DWR treatment after washing. Follow the product's instructions for application.
- Storage: Store the parka in a dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid compressing it for long periods to maintain the insulation's effectiveness.
