Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Nanda Devi Jacket requires no special setup. Simply put it on and adjust the fit using the hood, cuffs, and hem drawcords.
Compatibility: It is compatible with layering systems. Use base layers and mid-layers to enhance warmth in colder temperatures. The jacket’s alpine fit allows layering without restricting movement.

Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry. Follow the care label instructions.
Re-proofing: The durable water repellent (DWR) finish may need to be refreshed over time. Use a wash-in or spray-on DWR treatment according to the product instructions. This will maintain the jacket's water-repelling capabilities.
