Troubleshooting

Garment feels clammy or doesn't seem to wick moisture effectively.

Ensure you are not using fabric softener during washing, as this can clog the fabric's pores. Wash with a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly. Verify that the garment is not overloaded in the washing machine.

Sun protection seems reduced.

Ensure the fabric is clean and free from heavy soiling. Over time, wear and tear can affect fabric performance; however, standard washing and drying should maintain its UPF rating if care instructions are followed.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. If persistent, apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the zipper teeth.
