Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your jacket, follow these maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: Use a specialized technical wash detergent rather than standard household soap to avoid clogging the breathable pores.
- Re-Waterproofing: Over time, the outer Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating will wear off. If water stops beading on the surface, apply a spray-on waterproofing treatment after cleaning.
- Storage: Always ensure the jacket is completely dry before packing it away in a closet to prevent mold or mildew growth.
- Compatibility: The jacket fits true to size, but consider wearing a base layer or light mid-layer to maximize the effectiveness of the breathable membrane.
