Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket is designed for immediate wear with no setup required. To maintain the performance of the water-repellent finish, ensure you wash the garment following the care label instructions, typically using a gentle cycle with a technical wash meant for insulated outerwear. Avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR coating. Store the jacket in a dry, ventilated area to allow the synthetic insulation to retain its loft, and avoid compressing it under heavy items for long periods. If the jacket loses its water-shedding capabilities over time, consider re-treating the outer fabric with a spray-on DWR revival product.
