Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Pakka set remains waterproof, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth after use. If machine washing is necessary, use a gentle cycle with a specialized technical wash to preserve the DWR finish.
- Drying: Always air dry the items. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the waterproof membrane.
- Storage: Ensure the set is completely dry before folding it into the storage bag to prevent mildew.
- Compatibility: The set is designed to be worn over regular clothing; size up if you intend to wear it over bulky winter jackets.
