Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the jacket's technical performance, follow these guidelines:
- Care: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner designed for waterproof garments. Avoid biological detergents and fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR coating.
- Re-proofing: If water stops beading on the surface, apply a DWR spray treatment after washing to restore the outer shell's finish.
- Storage: Always ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing it in a cool, well-ventilated area to prevent mold growth on the inner lining.
- Compatibility: The jacket is designed to be worn over a base layer or light fleece. Its mid-weight insulation means it can typically serve as an outer layer in most European autumn and winter conditions.
