Yes, it can be machine washed on a cool, gentle cycle. Avoid bleach and softeners.
The jacket acts as a waterproof shell. It is not insulated, so it is best worn as an outer layer over warm mid-layers during winter.
This refers to the construction: a durable outer layer, a waterproof membrane, and a protective half-layer 'print' on the inside, which makes it lightweight and packable.
The jacket is designed to be folded or stuffed into its own integrated packable pouch, usually found in a pocket or included as part of the jacket design.
With a 5K rating, it is designed for light to moderate rain showers. For extreme, prolonged storms, a higher-rated technical mountain jacket may be required.
The DWR coating may have worn off; apply a waterproof re-proofing spray to the outer shell and allow it to dry.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and gently clean the zipper track with a soft brush to remove dirt or debris.
To ensure your jacket maintains its performance, avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating. Machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle and hang dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources. Because the jacket is highly packable, it is recommended to unfold it periodically rather than keeping it stored in its bag for extended months to help maintain the fabric's integrity. Ensure the zipper is fully closed when packing the jacket into its storage bag to prevent snagging.
