Care

The Prism Vest uses PERTEX® fabric which contains a Durable Water Repellency (DWR) as the first barrier in keeping you dry. Clean your garment in order to maintain this. Machine wash in warm water at 30°C/86°F with a mild detergent. MONTANE® recommends that you use Nikwax Tech Wash. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach. Drip dry. Your vest may need occasional re-proofing to restore the DWR. MONTANE® recommends Nikwax TX Direct. Please see www.nikwax.com for more information.
