Troubleshooting

Parka feels less warm than expected.

Ensure the parka is completely dry, and that the down is not compressed. Re-fluff the down by tumbling it in a dryer on low heat with clean tennis balls. Check the layering underneath to ensure it is appropriate for the conditions.

Zippers are difficult to operate.

Apply a zipper lubricant to the zippers. Ensure there is no debris caught in the zipper teeth.

Water is penetrating the parka.
