Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. Simply unpack it from its stuff sack and wear it. Ensure the hood is adjusted if necessary for a comfortable fit.
Compatibility: This jacket is designed for adult women and is suitable for wear over base layers or lighter mid-layers. It is not designed for extreme cold weather conditions as a primary insulating layer.
Care: To maintain the jacket's waterproof and breathable properties:
- Washing: Machine wash at 40°C on a gentle cycle using a liquid detergent. Do not use powder detergents or fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores and impair breathability.
- Rinsing: Rinse twice to remove all traces of detergent.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with a towel for 20 minutes. This helps to reactivate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish.
- Re-proofing: If water no longer beads on the surface after washing and drying, apply a suitable re-proofing spray or wash-in product, following the manufacturer's instructions. Allow to air dry completely.
