Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently work the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Hoody feels too tight/loose
Review the sizing chart provided by Vass. Consider the intended use for layering. If the fit is significantly off, check the return policy of the retailer.
Fleece pilling after washing
This is a common occurrence with fleece. To minimize pilling, wash inside out on a gentle cycle with cold water and avoid high heat drying. Consider using a fabric shaver for minor pilling.
