DWR
Fabric moisture treatment
DWR stands for durable water repellent, a coating applied to fabrics that causes water to bead up and roll off rather than soak in.
Common on outdoor gear like rain jackets and hiking pants: The DWR on my jacket is wearing off—time to reapply.
The coating degrades with use and washing but can be restored with spray-on treatments.
