Your MKI MA2 Bomber is filled with 100% polyester, wrapped in a nylon shell and lined in nylon. The filling is what gives the jacket its warmth and shape, so heat and harsh treatment can flatten it over time. These six steps will help your bomber stay full, warm and true to shape, from the day it arrives.
-
Spot clean first
For small marks, dab the area with a damp cloth and a little mild detergent before considering a full wash.
-
Hand wash in cold water
When a full wash is needed, hand wash only, in cold water, gently pressing rather than scrubbing or wringing.
-
Keep it away from bleach, the tumble dryer and dry cleaning
None of these suit this jacket's nylon shell, nylon lining and polyester filling.
-
Dry naturally
Lay the jacket flat or hang it somewhere warm and airy, away from direct heat, until completely dry.
-
Reshape as it dries
Gently shake and fluff the jacket occasionally while it dries to help the filling settle evenly.
-
Iron low, if at all
Use a low heat setting only, and store the jacket hung or loosely folded rather than compressed.
