Care & Longevity

Hand wash or machine wash at 30°C using liquid detergent or a specialist cleaner. Tumble dry on a low heat with a slow spin speed, or line dry before using a cool iron with a protective cloth to reactivate the DWR finish. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not iron zips, zip edges, or logos, and always follow the manufacturer's care instructions.
