Troubleshooting
Water is soaking into the fabric rather than beading up.
The DWR finish may be wearing off. Clean the vest to remove dirt/oils and consider applying a DWR refreshing spray.
The hood is difficult to attach or detach.
Ensure the zippers or snaps are clear of any fabric or debris before aligning the hood connection points.
The drawstring hem is uneven.
Fully loosen the toggles on both sides, ensure the cord is not twisted inside the hem channel, and pull evenly to tighten.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your vest maintains its performance, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Always check the inner care label, but generally, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade the water-repellent finish.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the synthetic padding. If tumble drying is necessary, use a low heat setting.
- Water Repellency Maintenance: If the fabric stops shedding water effectively, a technical wash-in or spray-on DWR re-proofer may be applied after cleaning.
- Storage: Hang the vest on a wide-shouldered hanger when not in use to preserve the shape of the shoulder seams and padding.
