Maintenance and CareUpdated a year ago

Information on the Durable Water Repellant (DWR) coating: your Cortazu jacket has a DWR coating, which causes water to bead and roll off, making its fabric water repelling. This treatment prevents the fabric from attracting dirt, making it more breathable, while simultaneously giving optimal moisture vapor transportation to the fabric. As time goes by, this coating will slowly wear off, especially in vulnerable places like the seat, knees, shoulders and elbows. Re-application of the DWR treatment is important and will restore your jacket's performance.

When to apply Durable Water Repellant (DWR): Renewal of the DWR coating is recommended when your jacket is wetting out. Use your own discretion for the reapplication frequency, also depending on your jacket's usage.
