Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the integrity of your Altura Nightvision Storm Jacket, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a gentle, technical fabric wash. Avoid biological detergents and fabric softeners, as they can strip the waterproof membrane.
- Drying: Air dry the jacket in a shaded area. High-heat tumble drying can damage the DWR coating.
- DWR Maintenance: Periodically re-apply a DWR spray treatment to the outer shell if you notice water no longer 'beads' on the surface.
- Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a dry, well-ventilated space to prevent mildew buildup.
- Compatibility: The jacket is compatible with most cycling backpacks, though users should ensure straps are adjusted to avoid excessive friction on reflective zones.
