Troubleshooting

Reduced water repellency

Tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting to reactivate the water-repellent treatment. Ensure no fabric softener was used during washing.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure the zipper is clean and free from debris. Gently try to move it back and forth. If the issue persists, check for any fabric caught in the teeth.

Jacket feels less warm than expected

Ensure all zippers and closures are fastened to prevent drafts. Consider layering additional thermal garments underneath for colder conditions, especially if the EN 342 certification was dependent on specific combinations.

High-visibility color appears faded

Limit machine washing to 20 times at 40°C as per care instructions. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use.
