Care Instruction

To maintain the performance of your Simms Flyweight Packable Wader, air dry thoroughly after each use, ensuring they are completely dry inside and out before storing. For washing, use a front-load washing machine on a gentle cycle with cold water and a specialized GORE-TEX friendly detergent or mild powder detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat setting to help reactivate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish. Do not dry clean or iron. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
