Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
The Aubrion React Waterproof Coat requires minimal setup. The hood is adjustable via a draw-cord and can be attached or detached using the zipper. Ensure all zips are fully closed before wear, and adjust the wrist cuffs and hem draw-cord for a snug fit.
Compatibility:
This coat is designed as unisex outerwear, with specific sizing available. Its performance features make it suitable for various outdoor activities, particularly those involving movement like horse riding.
Care Instructions:
To maintain the waterproof and breathable properties, and the DWR finish:
- Washing: Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Use a small amount of liquid detergent. Avoid using powder detergents, fabric softeners, or bleach, as these can damage the fabric and coatings.
- Rinsing: Rinse twice to ensure all detergent is removed.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting for about 20 minutes to reactivate the DWR treatment. Alternatively, hang dry and then iron on a low heat setting (no steam), placing a cloth between the iron and the fabric.
- Re-waterproofing: If the DWR finish appears to be failing (water no longer beads on the surface), a re-waterproofing treatment can be applied after washing, following the product's instructions. Specialized spray-on or wash-in reproofers are recommended.
