Care Instructions
Proper care will maintain your jacket's water repellency and insulation performance. Always check the garment's specific care label for the most accurate instructions. Based on its polyester material and insulation, general care guidelines are:
- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C or 86°F) on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent.
- Detergent: Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the water repellent finish and insulation.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps to 'fluff up' the synthetic insulation, restoring its loft and warmth. It may take several cycles to fully dry and re-fluff. Air drying is also an option but may take longer and require manual fluffing.
- Ironing: Do not iron, as high heat can damage the polyester fabric and insulation.
- Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
- Water Repellency Maintenance: The water repellent finish may diminish over time. Consider using a technical wash-in or spray-on DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment periodically to restore its effectiveness.
