Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the longevity of the ARED waterproof coating, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can strip the waterproof finish.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If machine drying, use a low heat setting to help reactivate the durable water repellent (DWR) coating.
- Compatibility: The hood is specifically cut to fit over standard ski helmets. Ensure the internal elastic is pulled snug to prevent it from sliding off during activity.
- Storage: Hang the jacket in a dry, well-ventilated area after use to prevent moisture buildup inside the lining.
