Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the longevity of your jacket, always ensure all zippers and velcro closures are secured before washing. While the jacket is durable, it is recommended to wash it on a gentle cycle using a non-biological detergent to avoid stripping the water-resistant finish. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores of the breathable fabric. After several seasons of use, you may consider reapplying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to the exterior to maintain its performance. When storing for the off-season, hang the jacket in a cool, dry place on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the shape of the padding.
