Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a ready-to-wear garment, there is no setup required. For compatibility, the bodywarmer works best when paired with breathable base layers like merino wool or synthetic long-sleeve tops. To maintain the DWR finish and the integrity of the synthetic insulation, follow these care instructions:
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild, non-biological detergent.
- Do not use fabric softeners, as they can break down the water-repellent coating.
- Tumble dry on a low heat setting with a clean tennis ball to help redistribute the insulation, or air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
- Re-apply a DWR spray treatment periodically if you notice water no longer beads on the surface.
