Hi Julie, this jacket should retain it's waterproofing properties for ten washes. Wash by itself, follow the instructions, and only use a little detergent. Air dry. I use Nikwax Tech Wash to add waterproofing to all of my older outerwear. It's a simple, washing machine additive that really works. We sell it at Backcountry.com, just pop this link in your browser for more information: http://www.backcountry.com/store/NIK0033/Nikwax-Tech-Wash.html. I hope that helps.
