Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no specific "setup" required for the jacket; it's ready to wear. However, pairing it with a compatible Berghaus fleece (sold separately) is recommended for colder conditions. To maintain the jacket's performance:
- Washing: Machine wash the jacket on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or hang to dry. If tumble drying, use the low setting.
- Re-proofing: After washing, you may need to re-proof the jacket with a durable water repellent (DWR) treatment to maintain its waterproofness.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat when not in use.
- Avoid: Avoid dry cleaning as it can damage the GORE-TEX membrane.
