Yes, it can be machine washed, but it is best to use a gentle cycle with a specialized technical wash to preserve the waterproof coating.
It is the highest European standard for protective clothing against rain, indicating top-tier levels of both water resistance and breathability.
The adjustable straps allow for some flexibility, but the bib is primarily designed for standard work layers.
They are reinforced for durability, but they do not contain dedicated foam inserts.
The polyester fabric is robust and durable rather than elastic, so it holds its shape well under heavy use.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off; apply a specialized DWR re-proofing spray to restore the water-beading effect.
Check the ski-lock mechanism for debris. Clean the locking teeth and ensure the strap is fully engaged in the locked position.
To ensure the best fit, adjust the ski-lock shoulder straps while standing to ensure the bib sits comfortably across your torso without pulling on your shoulders. When layering, the garment is designed to fit over standard trousers; use the side access zips to manage your layers during the day.
For care, it is recommended to wash the garment in cool water using a non-detergent soap if possible, to protect the waterproof membrane. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores of the waterproof material and reduce breathability. Always hang the garment to air dry in a well-ventilated space; avoid tumble drying, as high heat can damage the waterproof sealing strips.
