Troubleshooting
Reduced visibility
Ensure the jacket is clean. Dirt and grime can obscure reflective elements. Check for damage to reflective strips or fabric.
Not warm enough
This jacket provides thermal insulation, but for extreme cold, consider layering with additional thermal wear. Ensure the fleece-lined collar is snug.
Water not repelling effectively
The water-repellent finish can diminish over time. Re-apply a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray after washing according to product instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. Lubricate the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.
