Troubleshooting

Gilet not waterproof after washing

Ensure no fabric softener was used during washing, as this can affect water repellency. Consider a re-waterproofing treatment if performance diminishes significantly over time.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil tip or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Synthetic fill feels uneven

Gently shake the gilet to redistribute the fill. If the issue persists after washing and drying according to instructions, it may be a manufacturing defect.
