Take care of your gear – and it will take care of you.
Outdoor clothing is built to handle tough conditions, but proper care makes all the difference. Learn how to clean, dry, and store your Garphyttan gear to extend its life and performance. With the right maintenance, your clothes stay durable, weather-ready, and comfortable – season after season.
Wash less – and wash smart
You don’t need to wash your garments after every use. Many of our products are made to breathe and resist dirt, meaning you can often just air them out or brush them off. When it’s time to wash:
Gentle washing helps preserve shape, function, and fabric over time.
Wax for protection and durability
Many of our trousers, jackets, and anoraks are made from cotton blends that can be waxed for added water resistance and dirt protection. Waxing also increases durability in high-wear areas.
We recommend Garphyttan Garment Wax, a carefully developed mix of paraffin and natural beeswax – ideal for both the workbench and the mountain trail.
Store smart
When you’re not wearing your gear – store it right.
Repair before replacing
A worn-out seam, torn knee, or missing button doesn’t mean your garment is done. In fact, that’s often when it’s just getting good. Most Garphyttan garments are made to be repaired – with reinforced seams, double layers, and construction that’s built to last.
