Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket remains in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Check the internal care label for specific washing instructions. Typically, you should wash on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR coating.
- Drying: Air dry the jacket in a well-ventilated area. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can damage the synthetic padding and the faux fur.
- Water Repellency: Over time, the effectiveness of the DWR coating will fade. You can rejuvenate the water-repellent properties by using a specific wash-in or spray-on re-proofer available at outdoor retailers.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a clean, dry place. Do not compress the garment tightly for long periods, as this can flatten the padding and reduce its insulating capabilities.
