This jacket requires no setup. Simply wear it as your outer layer for protection against the elements. Compatibility with other clothing is broad; wear it over any base layers or mid-layers as needed for warmth. For care, the jacket is made from `100% Polyester pongee` with a `PVC coating`. To maintain its waterproof and windproof properties, it is generally recommended to:
- Washing: Follow the care label instructions. Typically, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild, non-detergent soap designed for technical outerwear. Avoid fabric softeners as they can impair waterproof treatments.
- Drying: Air dry only. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the PVC coating and taped seams.
- Ironing: Do not iron. High heat will damage the PVC coating.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure the jacket is fully dry before storing to prevent mildew.
*Note*: Specific instructions for PVC-coated garments may vary; always refer to the care label inside your jacket for precise guidance.
