Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the outer fabric
The DWR coating may have worn off. Clean the jacket and re-apply a DWR spray treatment to restore water repellency.
Popper fastener feels loose or does not click
Check for fabric debris inside the popper mechanism. Clean the area gently and ensure the popper is aligned correctly before pressing.
Hood keeps blowing back in wind
Tighten the adjustable toggles on the hood until it fits snugly against the head, ensuring the cord is pulled evenly from both sides.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket remains waterproof and looking its best, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle in cool water. Avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the waterproof coating.
- Drying: Air dry the jacket naturally away from direct sunlight. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the fabric's protective properties.
- Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and the alignment of the back pleat.
- Maintenance: If the water starts to soak into the fabric over time, consider using a specialized DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray treatment specifically designed for cotton-blend outdoor gear.
