Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Russell HydraPlus Padded Jacket, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Adjustment: Utilize the drawcord hem and touch-fastening cuffs to seal the jacket to your body size, which helps in retaining body heat.
- Cleaning: Always check the inner garment label before washing. Generally, wipe down with a damp cloth for minor surface dirt. If machine washing, use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and avoid using fabric softeners that can damage the water-resistant coating.
- Drying: Hang-dry the jacket in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the nylon and padding from becoming brittle.
- Storage: Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing it in a closet to prevent mold or odors from developing inside the padding.
