Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the effectiveness of the water-repellent treatment, proper cleaning is essential. Always zip the jacket fully and turn it inside out before placing it in the washing machine. Use a cold water cycle with like colors. Avoid the use of fabric softeners, as they can clog the fabric pores and degrade the water-repellent performance. Use non-chlorine bleach only when necessary. Tumble dry on a low heat setting to help reactivate the performance properties, and avoid professional dry cleaning or ironing to protect the synthetic fibers.
