Taking good care of your GORE-TEX garments is easy - and that includes washing your waterproof GORE-TEX outerwear and non-waterproof clothing from the GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ product range.

In this video we will show you why it’s important to care for your jacket & pants. You’ll get useful advice when and how often you should wash your garments and how to check the waterproofing / impregnation layer, also known as DWR (durable water repellent).

This simple process includes 3 steps:
Step 1: Wash
Step 2: Dry
Step 3: Reapply

Be sure to carefully follow the garment manufacturer’s instructions too.
