Caring for your Parka
The outershell fabric is treated with special polymers that prevent the fabric from absorbing moisture, by making water bead up and roll off to minimize condensation within the garment and maximize breathability. Over time your garment will absorb oil and dirt, the polymers break down, and the waterproof and breathability qualities are reduced. Therefore it is essential to keep your parka clean.
Washing Instructions
- Wash outershell in warm to cold water with like colors.
- Faux fur around the hood is detachable. Remove before washing.
- Use a mild detergent, never use liquid detergents. For the best performance we recommend washing your parka using Nikwax.
- Tumble dry on a medium heat to help redistribute the polymers on the fabric surface.
