Engineered with MTD technology, it provides excellent protection against wind and rain while remaining breathable, though the polyester construction is best suited for seasonal layering rather than extreme sub-zero alpine conditions.

How should I clean this parka?

The MTD parka is designed as a protective shell. It is windproof and waterproof, but requires additional mid-layers for warmth in cold weather.
What does MTD stand for?
MTD stands for 'Marine Technical Design,' a proprietary Aigle technology focused on providing waterproof, windproof, and breathable protection.
Is the material waterproof?

Troubleshooting
Water appears to soak into the outer fabric
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may be worn off. Apply a technical water-repellent spray designed for synthetic fabrics and tumble dry on low to reactivate if necessary.
Zipper is sticking
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the teeth. Gently clean the zipper track with a soft brush and apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or a candle wax stick if resistance persists.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment is designed for immediate use. To maintain the MTD membrane's performance, wash the parka using a gentle cycle with a detergent formulated for technical outerwear. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the pores of the breathable membrane and reduce its efficacy. For drying, hang the coat in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators. Periodically check that all zippers are free of debris to ensure smooth operation.
