How do I adjust the waistcoat for ventilation?

How should I clean the waistcoat?

Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. If persistent, a small amount of graphite from a pencil can sometimes lubricate the teeth.
Fabric feels rough after cleaning
This can happen with wool blends. Ensure professional dry cleaning is used as per instructions. Avoid harsh detergents or excessive agitation.
Pockets seem to lose shape
Avoid overstuffing the pockets. Ensure the garment is stored flat and not crammed into a tight space.
