Troubleshooting
Jacket not fully waterproof
Ensure all zippers are fully closed and the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need reapplication. Refer to care instructions for re-waterproofing.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Gently try to clear any fabric caught in the zipper. If the zipper is stiff, a small amount of graphite from a pencil can help lubricate it.
Jacket feels less breathable
Check if the inner lining or outer fabric is heavily soiled. Consider cleaning the jacket according to care instructions, as dirt can impede breathability.
Hood detachment issues
Ensure the fasteners for the removable hood are properly aligned and securely fastened or unfastened. Check for any debris obstructing the mechanism.
