How to care for your heated clothing in the off-season

The call of Canada geese and snow geese returning home is a sure sign that spring is here to stay… Time to put away your winter bits and bobs.

Like any high-quality gear, the durability of ewool heated clothing depends on how well you take care of it – even in the off-season.

Of course, ewool is versatile enough that it can still be enjoyed on cool summer nights and brisk mornings on the golf course. But if you’re ready to store your heated clothing away now that spring has officially sprung, here are some tips that will preserve the quality of the material and guarantee the same unparalleled heat and comfort when fall returns.

Maintenance

With ewool, the battery can be easily removed. That means you can toss your heated clothing into the washing machine without any worry of damage.

• Remove the battery
• Machine wash separately in cold water on a delicate cycle with a mild detergent
• Hang to dry
• Do not dry clean, iron or wring out the vest, which may damage the heating panels.

Storage

For the best results, keep your ewool heated clothing away from excessive heat or humidity. It should be stored in a dry, well-ventilated area, and away from direct sunlight. It is also recommended that you place it in a storage bag to protect it from dust. Finally, don’t store any heavy objects on top of your heated clothing to avoid crushing or deforming the garment and the components inside.

The battery

Letting the battery fully discharge can shorten its life. If you won’t be using it until fall, recharge it completely and then store it in a cool, dry place.

By following these simple steps, your ewool clothing will last for years and deliver the warmth you need to enjoy every outdoor adventure to the max.
