Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. A small amount of graphite from a pencil rubbed on the teeth can sometimes help lubricate it.
Gilet feels tight in the shoulders
This may indicate an incorrect size. While the softshell offers some flexibility, ensure you have selected the correct size based on the brand's sizing chart. Check the 'Setup, Compatibility & Care' section for sizing advice.
Mesh back feels less breathable than expected
Ensure the mesh panel is not obstructed by other clothing layers underneath. For optimal performance, wear with lighter base layers.
