Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket and re-apply a DWR treatment according to product instructions.
Jacket feels clammy or less breathable.
Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the fabric pores. Wash according to care instructions and consider a specific technical wash if needed.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush and a little water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to help it slide smoothly.
