Care Instructions:
- Always wash using a non-biological technical cleaner recommended for waterproof synthetic fabrics.
- Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating from the outer shell.
- Hang dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can degrade the seam tape.
- Re-apply a DWR spray treatment if you notice water no longer beads off the surface of the fabric.
