What is the origin of the materials and manufacturing?

How do I care for the organic cotton content?

Troubleshooting
Water not beading off effectively
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Consider reapplying a suitable waterproofing treatment designed for outerwear fabrics. Always follow the product's care label for washing before treatment.
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the slider. If it's stiff, a small amount of wax or silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the zipper teeth.
Seams appear to be leaking
Check the care label for washing instructions. Over time, cleaning agents can degrade seam sealants. Ensure the garment has been washed according to instructions and consider a seam sealer if the issue persists and the product is still within its intended lifespan.
