Troubleshooting
Gilet feels too tight or too loose
Refer to the sizing chart provided by the manufacturer. Consider ordering a different size if the fit is not ideal. Note that different material variants (Polyester vs. Nylon) might have slightly different fits.
Zippers are difficult to operate
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If persistent, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the zipper teeth.
Padding appears uneven after washing
Gently reshape the padding while the garment is slightly damp. Avoid harsh wringing or twisting. Follow the recommended drying method (tumble dry low or hang dry).
