Garment Care

Taking care of the coat that takes care of you...

Normal dirt accumulation may be removed from a garment by light sponging with a dampened rag or sponge.

More persistent soiling may be removed by the gentle application of a dilute soap or non-biological detergent to a dampened sponge or rag.

Do not spot-clean with solvents or aromatic fluids. Such application will damage the coating.

Do not abrade fabric when cleaning and avoid persistent rubbing. Garment should only be stowed in a thoroughly dry and clean condition. Chemical or soap residues, or storage when wet will lead to damage to the resistance properties of the fabric.

1. GENTLE wash or wool cycle at 40°C(maximum). Use only soap flake or non-enzymatic (non-biological) detergents in the wash. DO NOT use fabric conditioner. Do not use bleach to remove stains.

2. Do Not Tumble Dry. Excessive heat during drying will damage the coating while it is in the wet condition from washing.

3. Do not wring to remove excess water.

4. Line dry. (Recommended)

5. Iron on LOW HEAT on FACE (not on liner fabric). May be ironed on high heat ONLY WITH COTTON OR POLYCOTTON covering the area to be ironed. DO NOT use STEAM. High iron heat on synthetic (nylon or polyester) will damage the fabric.

6. May be dry-cleaned with perchlorethylene or White Spirits systems only. Do not spot-clean with aromatic solvents.

Check the fabric regularly and perform regular maintenance to ensure that optimum wearer protection and comfort are preserved. Restoration of the waterproofness of the fabric may be accomplished by ironing. Degradation of water and soil repellancy can be determined, when beading of water fails to develop on the surface when wet (i.e. when the fabric is wet out by contact with water, instead of beading).
