Troubleshooting
Garment feels damp after activity
Ensure the fabric is not oversaturated. For optimal moisture-wicking, avoid using fabric softeners during washing, as they can impede the fabric's performance.
Reduced UV protection over time
Follow care instructions carefully. Harsh detergents or improper drying can degrade the UPF treatment over many washes. Ensure the garment is fully dry before storing.
