Troubleshooting

Rash vest feels tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the size is correct, the fabric may need a few wears to fully stretch and conform to your body. Always check the size guide before purchasing.

Zipper is difficult to move

Rinse the zipper area with fresh water to remove any sand or salt. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax if the issue persists. Ensure fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth.

Fabric loses elasticity over time

This can be due to improper washing or exposure to harsh chemicals. Always follow the care instructions: rinse after use, hand wash with mild detergent, and dry away from direct sunlight.

Skin irritation or chafing

Ensure the vest is the correct size and fit. Sometimes, prolonged friction can occur. Rinsing the garment thoroughly and ensuring it dries properly can help. Consider wearing a thin base layer if irritation continues.
