Are the seams sealed?

Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.
Clean the jacket thoroughly according to care instructions and re-apply a durable water repellent (DWR) treatment. Ensure all seams are intact.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil to the zipper teeth to improve glide.
Fleece lining feels matted or less effective.
Ensure the jacket is being washed and dried correctly. Avoid fabric softeners and high heat drying, which can damage fleece fibers.
