To ensure the longevity and continued performance of your waterproof jacket, proper care is essential.
Washing: Info needed: Always refer to the specific care label inside your jacket for detailed washing instructions. Generally, waterproof garments require gentle washing with specific detergents designed for technical outerwear to preserve their waterproof membrane and DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating.
Drying: Info needed: Avoid high heat. Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry away from direct heat sources, as excessive heat can damage the waterproof coating.
Re-proofing: Over time, the DWR coating may wear off. If you notice water not beading on the surface, you may need to re-apply a DWR treatment, available from outdoor retailers. Follow the product instructions carefully.
