ReCare - WASH + DRY
Dirt, sweat and grime will age your gear prematurely. Each material requires its own unique care and handling, to enjoy a long and productive life. (Don’t we all?)
Optimum state: dry and lofted.
Air pockets caught between clusters of down feathers retain body warmth. This loft is what provides down’s insulation. Over time, dirt, sweat and moisture can contaminate the down feathers through the outer jacket material and cause them to clump and lose their loft. A gentle wash and thorough dry will restore the jacket’s insulating performance.
For garments that combine both GORE-TEX and Down fabrics, play to the gear’s more sensitive side: Follow the Wash + Dry instructions for Down.
Ideally, use a cleaning agent made specifically for technical down products. We recommend Nu Down Detergent.
Wash down only when necessary.
Act when there are obvious signs of dirt or sweat, the down has become clumpy or there is a loss of loft.
