Troubleshooting
Water is seeping through the fabric.
Check if the DWR finish has worn off. Re-apply a suitable DWR treatment. Ensure all seams and zips are intact and properly closed. Consider the garment's waterproof rating; it may be exceeded by prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
Jacket feels clammy inside.
This can occur if the breathability limit is reached during high exertion. Ensure the main zip and any pit zips (if applicable) are open to increase ventilation. Wear breathable base layers.
Zip is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to move the zip. Lubricate the zip teeth with graphite (pencil lead) or a specialized zip lubricant. Avoid forcing the zip, which can cause damage.
Jacket is difficult to pack into its belt bag.
Ensure the jacket is as flat as possible before packing. Push out excess air. The internal pocket is designed for a snug fit when packed.
