Troubleshooting
Garment feels sticky or retains odor.
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and that the garment is fully rinsed. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the fabric's performance fibers.
Fabric not drying as quickly as expected.
Check care label for any deviations. Ensure no fabric softener residue is present. Tumble dry on low heat may help reactivate some drying properties.
Zipper is stiff.
Gently try to move the zipper. If still stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
