Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is an insulated waterproof garment, proper care is essential for maintaining its functionality. Always close all zippers and fasten any hook-and-loop closures before placing the jacket in the washing machine. Wash using a gentle cycle with a specialized tech-wash detergent to avoid damaging the waterproof membrane. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the durable water-repellent (DWR) coating from the fabric surface. If you notice water no longer beads off the surface after extended use, consider using a re-waterproofing treatment spray after washing. The jacket is designed to be worn over standard mid-layers or sweaters due to its relaxed fit.
