Care & Maintenance

• Machine wash at 30 °C on a gentle cycle; close all zips and fastenings before washing to prevent snagging or deformation.
• Tumble dry on low heat or hang on a wide-shouldered hanger to air-dry fully in a well-ventilated space away from direct sunlight.
• Periodically re-apply a DWR (durable water repellent) spray to the outer shell to maintain its weather-resistance performance.
