Why your gear deserves better care

February 2025

Why your gear deserves better care

Quality outdoor gear is built to perform and last, but even the best materials can break down over time without proper care. When neglected, products may stop performing long before their true end-of-life.

This is where care and repair make all the difference. By cleaning, repairing, and storing your gear properly, you can extend its lifespan and keep it performing at its best. It’s a simple habit with meaningful benefits: gear that works better, lasts longer, and saves money by reducing the need for premature replacements.

Simple steps, lasting results

Caring for your gear doesn’t require advanced tools or expertise. Start with these basics:

  • Wash your gear with the right detergents to remove dirt, oils, and sweat that can degrade fabrics. Avoid standard household detergents, as they may damage performance materials.
  • Reproof waterproof gear periodically to maintain its water resistance. Use sprays or wash-in treatments specifically designed for technical fabrics, following the product instructions.
  • Dry your gear thoroughly after each use to prevent mold and mildew. For down jackets, tumble-drying with clean tennis balls helps restore their loft.
  • Repair minor damage like tears or broken zippers promptly to keep it from worsening. Many fixes can be done at home, or you can seek professional help for more complex issues.

These simple actions go a long way in ensuring your gear stays reliable for your next adventure.

Care for your gear, and it cares for you

Taking care of your gear is about respecting the craftsmanship and resources behind it. Proper maintenance not only preserves performance but also supports a circular lifecycle, reducing waste and maximizing value.

It’s not complicated—it’s just practical. And when you care for your gear, it takes care of you in return.
