Washing & Care Instructions

• Close all zips and Velcro® fastenings before cleaning to prevent accidental damage to the fabric.
• Turn the garment inside out before washing to protect the exterior finish and technical logos.
• Hang the vest to dry naturally and avoid using a tumble dryer to preserve the WindWall™ properties.
• Use a mild detergent and follow a gentle machine wash cycle to maintain the integrity of the mixed-material build.
• Avoid the use of fabric softeners which can interfere with the performance of technical outdoor fabrics.
