How should I clean the jacket?

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels stiff after washing

Tumble dry on low heat with a few clean tennis balls to help restore softness.

Zipper is difficult to move

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) to the zipper teeth.

Water repellency seems reduced

Reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment specifically designed for technical outerwear. Follow the product instructions carefully.

Minor snags or pulls in the fabric

Carefully trim any loose threads with sharp scissors. For deeper pulls, consult a professional tailor if concerned about structural integrity.
