Recently we released our newest MAURIPRO Foul Weather Gear. We got reports that you are enjoying the performance of it. Now, we want to talk about the MX5 from a technical perspective and give you some tips to make your jacket and trouser last for many years.

The warrior all-weather offshore coastal choice: MX5

It is made of Gore-Tex 3: a 3-layer design that utilizes revolutionary membranes that are specially processed and proven high strength. The membrane is durably bonded to the rugged outer material and a specially developed robust inner lining. The main advantages of this material are that it has durably waterproof protection, is highly breathable, and is windproof, making it perfect for long-term offshore cruisers, midrange, and big boat racers.

Care Instructions for MAURIPRO MX5

Accumulated dirt and sweat could harm your gear's performance and water resistance. Therefore, you must keep clean all of your sailing gear to increase the lifetime of your jackets and trousers.

How often should you wash your MAURIPRO MX5 jacket and trouser?

First, look at the inside of the collar for built-up dirt, grime and sweat stains on the jacket, as well as other contaminants such as oil, grease, or gas in the trouser. We advise you to follow these steps at least once a season, but the more you use them, the more you should wash and care for them to maintain performance, as clean gear works better and lasts longer.

1. Empty, close, and loose:

Ensure all pockets are empty; all zips, flaps, and straps are closed; and drawstrings are loose before washing.

For heavy stains, don't use stain remover. Instead, use a small amount of liquid detergent and gently rub it into the stained area before laundry.

2. Wash:

For best results, avoid washing with other heavily soiled clothing and wash only one or two items per cycle. Also, use only a tiny amount of any household liquid laundry detergent (about 30ml or one ounce will be perfect).

Set your machine on 105°F 40°C, normal cycle, and rinse your garment thoroughly. Any remaining detergent could impact the long-lasting performance of your MAURIPRO MX5. Rinse twice and opt for a lower spin setting to reduce creasing.

3. Dry:

We recommend line drying since it's good for your gears and the environment, but you can also tumble dry the garments on a warm, normal cycle.
