Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents which can damage the non-PFC DWR finish and degrade the NextVent™ back panel padding. Drying Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry — high heat can delaminate the non-PFC DWR finish and warp the frame. Rain Cover Care The integrated rain cover should be dried before repacking to prevent mildew. Wipe with a damp cloth and hang to dry after wet use, then re-stow in the concealed compartment. DWR Refresh Non-PFC DWR wears off with heavy use. Re-treat the body and boot periodically with a spray-on DWR designed for technical backpacks to maintain surface water beading and breathability. Hardware Check Inspect the zippers, sternum strap whistle buckle, trekking-pole attachment loops, and water-bottle-pocket elastic before each trip. Clear debris from zippers and re-thread the sternum strap if it has shifted inside the channel. NextVent™ Care The NextVent™ back panel and shoulder strap padding are breathable by design. Avoid compressing the pack in tight storage for long periods which can crush the padding channels and reduce breathability over time. Storage Store loosely or hanging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Long-term compression in stuff sacks can crush the back-panel padding and reduce the pack's trail performance.
