Waterproof Products

Waterproof garments should never be washed with detergents or conditioners as this can affect the performance of the waterproof and breathable coating / laminate that is applied to the fabric. We would suggest that you was your garments in pure soap or a specialist wash such that can be obtained from all outdoor stores.

Before washing a waterproof garment it is essential to check there is no detergent or conditioner residue in your washing machine and always ensure that you fully read the washing instructions on the garments care label. Once you have completed a wash and spin cycle in your machine allow the garment to drip dry.

With continued use you will notice that your waterproof garments begin to wet out, this is when water droplets no longer bead off the fabric as easily and the fabric begins to absorb the water. This is due to continued use and direct effecting the performance of the waterproof treatment used to coat the fabrics outer, this can however be reactivated by treating the garment with a spray on reproofing agent that can be purchased from all outdoor stores.

Whenever using a specialist wash or proofing agent please carefully read the instructions before use.
