Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This jacket requires no specific setup; it is ready to wear upon purchase. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before use to maximize weather protection.
Compatibility: The jacket is designed to be worn over a range of layers, from lightweight base layers to insulated fleeces. Its regular fit accommodates additional clothing for variable conditions. It is suitable for activities like mountaineering, fast-packing, trekking, and winter climbing.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C (86°F) with a technical fabric detergent. Avoid using biological detergents, fabric softeners, or bleach.
- Rinsing: Rinse twice to ensure all detergent is removed.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry away from direct heat sources. Do not iron.
- Re-proofing: Periodically, when the water repellency has diminished (water no longer beads on the surface), re-apply a DWR treatment following the product instructions. This can be done after washing and drying.
