Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the waterproof integrity and insulation quality of your jacket, adhere to the following care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wash in a cool, gentle cycle with a technical detergent designed for waterproof garments. Avoid biological detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the durable water repellent (DWR) coating.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Tumble drying on a low setting may be used if the care label specifically permits it to help reactivate the DWR finish.
- Storage: Always store in a dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid storing while damp to prevent mildew.
- Maintenance: If water stops beading on the surface of the fabric after heavy use, use a technical re-proofing spray to restore the water-repellent layer.
