Restore water repellency and breathability with TX.Direct Wash-In treatment

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:


"When my shell starts soaking through instead of beading water, TX.Direct brings it back to life. It’s simple—throw it in the wash and the jacket feels like new again, without losing breathability. I use it on everything from my ski shell to my rain pants."


When our rainwear starts to wet out instead of repel, Nikwax TX.Direct® Wash-In gives it a second life. Designed for breathable waterproof fabrics, this treatment restores durable water repellency (DWR) and breathability in one easy wash—no need for heat activation or specialized gear.


We count on TX.Direct to keep our shells dry and our layering systems working properly, especially in alpine or all-day storm conditions. It’s safe for Gore-Tex®, eVent®, and other membrane technologies, and it’s completely PFAS-free, non-flammable, and water-based—making it a go-to for both performance and planet.

Reliable Product

I love my Direct Wash-In. Such an important step in keeping my gear clean and well maintained. I always follow the instructions for my front load washing machine, using an extra rinse cycle and following it up with the Nikwax water repellent wash. I use this product at least once per year on all our technical jackets and pants.

We pay lots of $ for quality gear, but that gear needs to be properly maintained. Use it on all my gortex once a year. It ensures my wife and I stay dry!

Directions are easy and the product works as advertised. After using direct wash-in it feels like some of my fleece items got softer, almost like they were when they were new, years ago.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally washed my gear after a season + of wearing and then sitting in my snow bags all off season. Everything came out perfectly clean and no longer stinky!
