8 How to Properly Care for Technical Clothing TEXTILE CARE Always read the care instructions sewn into your garment. Remove excessive dirt and mud under running water before placing garments in the washing machine. Only wash products with special detergents (e.g. Textile Wash). Common household detergents are generally too aggressive and may attack both the outer shell and the membrane or can even clog the membrane of technical clothing, reducing breathability. Close all zips and Velcro fasteners before washing and take fold-away hoods out of collars. Never use a fabric conditioner. The drum of the washing machine should never be more than 2/3 full with laundry. Hang jackets on clothes hangers and dry in a warm place. Outerwear should be waterproofed after each wash (and as required) using Textile Proof. This improves the lotus effect and enables sweat to be transferred efficiently from the inside to the outside of garments.
