Troubleshooting
Jacket is not repelling water effectively.
Ensure the PFAS-free Texpel Splash Eco fabric finish is intact. Re-apply a suitable waterproofing treatment for technical outerwear if necessary, following product instructions. Avoid fabric softeners during washing, as they can degrade water repellency.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Ensure the zipper is clean and free of debris. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper.
Jacket feels too warm indoors.
Utilize the 2-way zip and the adjustable zip-off hood for ventilation. Consider layering with lighter base layers that can be removed if transitioning between outdoor and indoor environments.

Consult the Portwest sizing chart for accurate measurements before purchase. If the fit is not as expected, consider exchanging for a different size if possible, ensuring it meets the specific fit preferences.
