Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket requires no specific setup; it is ready to wear upon purchase. It is compatible with a wide range of outdoor activities and casual wear. To maintain its performance and longevity:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Use a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the water-repellent treatment.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing.
- Re-Waterproofing: For best results, periodically re-apply a DWR treatment after several washes to maintain its water-resistant properties. Follow the instructions on the DWR product.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged compression to preserve the loft of the insulation.
