Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer water-repellent
The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Follow the care instructions to re-proof the jacket using a suitable spray or wash-in treatment.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. You can lubricate the teeth with a bit of graphite from a pencil or a bit of wax.
Seams are leaking water
Check if the taped seams are intact. If they appear damaged, contact customer support. Ensure the jacket has been properly cared for and re-proofed.
