Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Gelert Packaway Waterproof Jacket requires no setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. Ensure the hood and cuffs are adjusted for your comfort before use.
Compatibility: This jacket is designed as a standalone outer layer for protection against the elements. It is suitable for layering over other clothing, such as fleeces or t-shirts, depending on the weather conditions.
Care Instructions: To maintain the jacket's waterproof properties and longevity:
- Washing: Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle.
- Detergent: Use a specific technical wash or a mild liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and powders, as they can clog the pores and reduce breathability and waterproofing.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry away from direct heat sources.
- Re-proofing: For best results, consider re-waterproofing the jacket periodically using a spray-on or wash-in product designed for waterproof outerwear. Follow the product's specific instructions.
