Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the jacket, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent; avoid fabric softeners as they can damage the DWR finish.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If using a dryer, use a low heat setting to help maintain the loft of the internal padding.
- Re-proofing: Over time, the DWR finish may wear off. Use a technical DWR spray or wash-in treatment to restore the water-beading performance.
- Compatibility: The jacket is designed to work seamlessly with standard youth-sized ski helmets and base layers. Ensure the hood adjustment toggles are tightened when not wearing a helmet to prevent wind draft.
