Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the waterproofing, it is recommended to wash the jacket using technical garment cleaners that do not strip the durable water repellent (DWR) finish. Always close all zippers and tear-release fastenings before placing the garment in the washing machine. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can coat the fabric fibers and degrade the waterproof performance. For the best fit, utilize the drawcords at the waist and hem to seal the jacket against cold air drafts. Hang the jacket to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, which can damage the synthetic insulation.
