Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Regatta Hoscar jacket, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner recommended for waterproof breathable fabrics. Do not use biological detergents or fabric softeners as they can damage the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If using a tumble dryer, use a cool setting to reactivate the water-repellent finish.
- Re-proofing: If water stops beading on the surface of the jacket, apply a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment to restore protection.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place on a hanger rather than folded tightly to prevent permanent creasing or damage to the waterproof membrane.
