Troubleshooting
Shrinking after washing
Ensure you are washing in cold water and tumble drying on a low setting or air drying. Avoid high heat.
Pilling on the fabric surface
While designed to resist pilling, excessive friction can still cause minor pilling. Gentle washing and avoiding rough surfaces can help. If pilling occurs, a fabric shaver can be used carefully.
Drawcord for hood is difficult to adjust
Ensure the drawcord ends are not frayed. If they are, tie a small knot or use tape to prevent further fraying. Gently work the drawcord back and forth to loosen it.
