Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer repelling water effectively
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment may have worn off. Clean the jacket and apply a new DWR treatment according to product instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a brush and apply a graphite pencil lead or a small amount of wax to lubricate it. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Layer additional insulating clothing, such as a fleece or thermal base layer, underneath the softshell jacket for increased warmth.
