Maintenance
This garment comes factory treated with a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish. DWR is a polymer based, chemical compound treatment applied to the face fabric during manufacture. It works by lowering the surface tension of the fabric, this will in turn cause water droplets to bead up and roll off.
In time, dirt and body oils, abrasion, and multiple launderings can diminish the effects of DWR. This will result in the fabric absorbing moisture more readily or ‘wetting out’. At this time, we recommend reproofing this product with Nikwax SoftShell Proof™ Wash In.
Reproofing of DWR is dependent on use, regular application is recommended to maintain your garments water repelling capability.
