Setup, Compatibility & Care
The jacket requires no special setup. To maintain the integrity of the water-repellent finish and the loft of the insulation, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can clog the pores of the fabric and reduce water-repellency.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If machine drying, use a low heat setting and consider adding clean tennis balls to the drum to help redistribute the insulation during the cycle.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place. Avoid compressing the jacket tightly in storage bags for long periods to keep the insulation fluffy.
- Maintenance: If the water-repellency begins to fade, you can re-apply a DWR spray treatment designed for technical outerwear.
