Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the jacket maintains its performance, proper care is essential. Always consult the care label inside the garment before washing. Generally, use a technical gear cleaner rather than standard laundry detergent, as standard soap can leave residues that degrade the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating.
After washing, tumble dry on a low setting or hang dry to reactivate the water-repellent finish. Periodically, you may need to re-apply a DWR spray if you notice water no longer 'beads up' on the surface of the jacket. For compatibility, this jacket pairs best with mid-weight base layers and technical trousers from the Nike ACG line to ensure a consistent fit and climate regulation.
