DIDRIKSONS STEFAN JACKET

WASHING

Can I dry my clothes in a heating-cabinet?

When using a “heating cabinet” the heat should not exceed the garment recommended washing temperature, for example if the advised washing temperature is 40°C then this applies also to the drying temperature.

How should I wash my Didriksons jacket?

You will find a label on the inside of the garment with easy-to-follow care instructions.

Before washing

Do up all buttons, zips, buckles and velcro. This is to avoid wear and tear, both to these parts and to the rest of the garment. Wash the garment inside out to reduce wear and tear to the material’s PU coating. Read the garment’s care instructions carefully.

During washing

Use a mild laundry detergent, as this is gentler on the garment and has less of an effect on its water repellency. Avoid using fabric softener, as this can have a negative effect on the garment’s water repellency and can contribute to the eutrophication of our lakes. Use the wash programme and temperature recommended in the garment’s care instructions. If hand-washing, never leave the garment to soak.

After washing

Remove the washed garment from the washing machine as soon as the programme has finished. Avoid tumble-drying, as this causes unnecessary wear to the material. We do not recommend drying garments in drying cabinets because the temperature in cabinets is often too high. It is possible to dry our garments in drying cabinets, but the temperature should not exceed the recommended wash temperature. In other words, if the label recommends washing at 40°C, then the garment should be dried at no more than 40°C in a drying cabinet.

To help protect the environment and your clothes, avoid washing garments unnecessarily!

How should I wash Galon® items?

Galon® is a fully wind and waterproof fabric and does not need any impregnation or aftercare to maintain its waterproofness. If your Galon® clothing gets dirty, just wipe it clean. But if you do want to wash an item, choose a 40°C programme. Remember that Galon® can be damaged if the garment is exposed to heat, so avoid using a drying cabinet or tumble dryer.

Hint: turn rainwear inside out if it is wet to help it dry faster.

When do I need to reimpregnate my Didriksons jacket?

Most of our outer garments feature a dirt- and water-repellent surface treatment that is free from PFCs (perfluorocarbons). With frequent use or wear and tear, the resistance to dirt and water may diminish. A clean garment retains its functionality longer than a dirty one, so wash it when it becomes soiled, as airing or wiping stains is not sufficient. After washing, apply heat (light ironing, tumble drying, or using a drying cabinet for a few minutes) according to the washing instructions to reactivate the water repellency. After several washes or extensive wear, new water repellency may be required; in such cases, use PFC-free impregnation agents available in sporting goods stores.

Can I dry my clothes in the dryer?

We believe that tumbling should be avoided as this causes unnecessary wear on the features of the material and the garment.

Why should I not use fabric softener?
