Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your jacket, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a mild, non-biological detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can damage the waterproof coating.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If the care label permits, a cool tumble dry can help reactivate the water-repellent treatment.
- Re-proofing: If you notice water no longer beads on the surface of the jacket, apply a dedicated fabric water-repellent spray to restore performance.
- Storage: Always store in a dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid compressing the jacket for long periods to preserve the loft of the THERMOGUARD insulation.
- Compatibility: The jacket layers well over light base layers or fleece mid-layers due to its tailored but flexible fit.
