Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or gets stuck

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a tiny drop of lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper pull.

Poppers are difficult to fasten or unfasten

Ensure the poppers are aligned correctly before attempting to fasten. If they feel too tight, try to gently work them open and closed a few times. Avoid excessive force to prevent damage.

Gilet loses its shape after washing

Follow the recommended care instructions carefully, particularly regarding washing cycles and drying methods. Reshape the gilet while damp and allow it to air dry completely.
