Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket remains waterproof, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner designed for waterproof gear. Avoid heavy detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If using a tumble dryer, use a low heat setting to help reactivate the DWR finish.
- Compatibility: The jacket is designed to be worn over standard base layers and mid-weight fleece tops. The adjustable cuffs fit well over most hiking gloves.
- Storage: Hang the jacket in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew and to ensure the insulation retains its loft.
