This jacket requires no complex setup; simply put it on as an outer layer. It is compatible with a wide range of athletic apparel and can be layered over base layers, jerseys, or t-shirts. For care, follow these general guidelines for polyester athletic wear to maintain its water resistance and fabric integrity:
- Washing: Machine wash cold with similar colors. Using a mild detergent is recommended.
- Drying: Tumble dry low. Remove promptly to avoid wrinkles. Avoid high heat, as it can damage the water-resistant coating and fabric.
- Bleaching: Do not bleach. Bleach can degrade the fabric and its technical properties.
- Ironing: Do not iron. High heat from an iron can melt or damage the polyester fibers and coatings.
- Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean. Info needed: Specific care for DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish if present. To maintain water repellency over time, you might consider reapplying a DWR treatment designed for performance fabrics, following the product's instructions. Ensure all zippers are closed before washing.
