Care & Sewing Tips
Use a sharp Microtex or size 70/10 needle to prevent snagging the synthetic fibers. To maintain the waterproof coating, use clips instead of pins within the seam allowance to avoid unnecessary puncture holes. Hand wash or use a gentle cold cycle and air dry; avoid high-heat ironing which can damage the nylon and coating.
