Caring for the Ogwen V.1 Summit Edition - 3 layer fabric waterproof jacket is essential to ensure that it continues to perform well and keep you dry and comfortable in wet weather conditions. Here are some tips for washing and maintaining your jacket:
Washing:
- Use a mild detergent specifically designed for technical clothing or a specialized cleaner for waterproof membranes.
- Close all zippers and velcro closures before washing to prevent snagging or damage to the fabric.
- Wash on a gentle cycle with cold water.
- Avoid using fabric softener or bleach, as these can damage the waterproof membrane.
Drying:
- Do not put your jacket in the dryer. The heat can damage the waterproof membrane.
- Instead, lay your jacket flat to dry, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
- If you need to speed up the drying process, you can use a fan or a dry towel to gently blot away any excess moisture.
Storing:
- When not in use, store your jacket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
- Avoid storing your jacket in a damp or humid area, as this can lead to mold and mildew growth.
- If your jacket is wet, make sure it is completely dry before storing it.
