That would work. Honestly I'd just use a small amount of a powder detergent, and make sure to give it an extra rinse. This is NOT a waterproof garment, nor does that product actually waterproof the material. For all practical matters - if it's warm enough to be raining, it's much too warm for the Him Parka.
