Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the longevity of the waterproof coating, avoid harsh detergents and fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. Wash the jacket in cold water using a technical gear cleaner if possible. For setup, simply use the Velcro adjusters at the wrists to ensure a snug fit around your gloves or base layers. Always ensure all zippers are fully closed when not in use to preserve the integrity of the waterproof pocket seals. For drying, allow the garment to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the synthetic fibers.
