Troubleshooting
Jacket is not repelling water effectively
Check the care label for specific washing instructions. Over time, the water-repellent finish may diminish. Consider using a waterproofing spray suitable for polyester fabrics as per the product's instructions.
Zipper or press-studs are stiff or difficult to use
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the mechanism. Gently clean the zipper teeth or press-studs with a damp cloth and allow to dry. A small amount of wax can sometimes help smooth operation, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
Inner lining feels damp
While the exterior is waterproof, the jacket may not be fully breathable. In high activity or humid conditions, some moisture buildup inside is possible. Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers and consider wearing the jacket with the hood down for better ventilation when not raining.
