STORM Apparel Care Kit

Technical garments have a membrane and DWR coating that ensures the garment performs at its peak and is not absorbing water / wetting out. The DWR performance can be reduced by dirt, sweat, grease, washing powder and general use. Dirt and debris accumulates on the surface and in the microscopic pores of the fabric, it can then begin to lose breathability and water repellency. Therefore keeping garment clean ensures that it performs as intended.

Proper cleaning revitalises the fabric without damaging any active DWR treatment. Using a domestic laundry detergent is not suitable when it comes to the care of technical outwear as it damages the DWR on the garment, as they contain many compounds which are not advantageous to the performance, bleaches, colour brighteners, enzymes and perfumes.
