How to wash a rain jacket
Check your jacket pockets and remove all items.
Sending a jacket through the washing machine without emptying its pockets can result in damaged belongings. After you've checked all pockets on the outside, remember to check pockets on the inside of the jacket to make sure you don't forget anything.
Zip your jacket up and button or fasten all straps. Open straps and zippers can snag in the washer and rip your jacket.
