Wash, Reproof and Repair Your Outdoor Clothing
Wash
No, we don't mean in the sink.
Washing your technical clothing clears our dirt and oils and makes it perform better for longer. Simply throw it in the washing machine (following your garments wash instructions) to get rid of dirt and restore your jackets breathability, DWR and insulative properties.
Reproof
Regularly retreating your wet weather garment restores its Durable Waterproof Repellency and stops it from wetting out.
With wash-in or spray-on reproofer, you can revive your garment’s breathability and durable water repellency without affecting its internal wicking properties.
Repair
Life outdoors can take its toll on your clothing, we all get snags and tears from time to time.
By patching up your garments and wetsuits you can make your go-to favourites last longer. We love our old patched up jackets, they hold memories and tell our tales of going nice places and doing good things.
