Troubleshooting
Water soaking into the outer fabric
The DWR coating has likely worn off; wash the garment with a technical cleaner and re-apply a DWR water-repellent spray.
Build-up of moisture inside the jacket
Ensure you are not wearing heavy cotton layers underneath; use moisture-wicking base layers to improve breathability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the jacket performs optimally, always ensure the drawcord waist and cuffs are tightened in high-wind conditions to prevent heat loss. For cleaning, avoid standard laundry detergents which can strip the DWR coating. Use a technical cleaner designed for waterproof breathable fabrics. Periodically, you may need to re-apply a DWR spray treatment if water stops beading on the surface of the outer shell. Store the jacket in a cool, dry place and ensure it is completely dry before packing it away for extended periods to prevent mildew growth on the inner membrane.
