Care
> Info needed: Specific washing and drying instructions for this product are not provided in the product description. Always refer to the care label sewn into the garment for detailed instructions.
General care for waterproof polyester jackets often includes:
- Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle.
- Use a technical cleaner specifically designed for waterproof outdoor wear, rather than standard detergent, to preserve the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.
- Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impair the fabric's breathability and waterproofing.
- Do not bleach.
- Tumble dry on low heat or line dry away from direct heat.
- If the waterproofing seems to diminish over time, a re-proofing treatment can be applied.
