How to Wash and Care for your Ilse Jacobsen Raincoat
Ilse Jacobsen have integrated Ecorepel® coating throughout their entire softshell collection and have thereby phased out the use of fluorocarbons. Their raincoats with Ecorepel® coating can be machine washed. The coating lasts for at least 30 washes at 40℃. Even after frequent use and many washes the coating remains active. The coating can be reactivated after washing using a tumbler dryer, so there is no need to spray the coat with water-repellent spray.
We also recommend that you consider whether the whole coat needs to be washed or certain areas can simply be cleaned with a damp cloth. This is environmentally friendly as it saves water.
