Troubleshooting

Shirt feels slightly stiff after washing.

This is normal for quick-drying fabrics. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat. Avoid ironing directly on any printed or treated areas.

Insect repellent effect seems diminished.

Ensure you are following the care instructions and avoiding harsh detergents or fabric softeners. The treatment is designed to last for a significant number of washes, but effectiveness can reduce with improper care.

Zipper on chest pocket is difficult to use.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If still problematic, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) rubbed on the teeth can help lubricate it.
