Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your jacket, avoid heavy fabric softeners which can compromise the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating. Always zip the jacket fully and secure all hook-and-loop closures before washing. Machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold water using a technical cleaner recommended for GORE-TEX garments. After washing, a tumble dry on low heat is necessary to reactivate the DWR finish. Avoid ironing or dry cleaning. When storing, hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent degradation of the synthetic materials.
