Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof (water soaks in)

The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket using a special detergent for waterproof fabrics and then tumble dry on low heat to reactivate the finish. If performance does not improve, re-waterproof using a dedicated spray or wash-in product.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush and mild soap. Dry thoroughly and then apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax specifically designed for zippers.

Jacket feels clammy or less breathable

Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the membrane pores. Wash using a suitable detergent and rinse thoroughly. Check that internal pockets are empty and vents (if any) are open. If layering, ensure the inner layer is also breathable.

Loose threads or minor seam issues

For minor loose threads, carefully trim them with scissors. For more significant seam issues, consult a professional repair service or contact Jack Wolfskin customer support.
