Troubleshooting
Jacket is not fully waterproof anymore
Re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to the outer fabric. Ensure the main seams are sealed and the fabric itself has not been compromised.
Reduced warmth or loftiness
Ensure the insulation is not compressed. Follow washing instructions carefully to maintain loft. If the jacket has been stored compressed for a long period, allow it to hang and regain its volume.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper slider.
Jacket feels damp inside despite being waterproof
This could be due to poor breathability from a dirty outer fabric or contaminated membrane. Wash the jacket according to care instructions. Ensure inner layers are also breathable.
