Troubleshooting
Top feels damp after workout
Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners that can impede wicking. Verify that the CLIMACOOL technology is not compromised by excessive heat during drying.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently pull the zipper up and down a few times. If resistance continues, apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper track.
Garment has lost its shape
Check care label for specific washing instructions. Avoid high heat drying, which can cause shrinkage or loss of elasticity. Ensure the elastane component is not degraded by harsh chemicals.
