Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep the Farbank II in peak condition, always check the internal care label before washing. Generally, machine wash the jacket on a cool, gentle cycle with a technical cleaner designed for waterproof garments. Avoid fabric softeners as they can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. After washing, tumble dry on a low setting or hang to dry naturally to help reactivate the waterproof properties. Ensure the hook-and-loop cuff fasteners are closed during the wash to prevent lint buildup. Periodically re-treating the outer shell with a specialized spray-on DWR treatment will maintain the jacket's ability to 'bead off' water over the long term.
