Troubleshooting
Jacket zippers are stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure zippers are clean and free of debris. Lubricate with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Water is penetrating through seams.
Check if the taped seams are intact. If damaged, consider professional repair or seam sealing. Ensure the garment has not been washed with fabric softeners, which can degrade waterproof coatings.
Jacket feels too warm indoors.
Utilize the 2-way zip for ventilation. If necessary, remove the hood or adjust cuffs to allow more airflow. For extended indoor periods, consider layering with lighter clothing or removing the jacket.
Reflective trim is peeling off.
Avoid high heat during washing and drying. If minor peeling occurs, a low-heat iron with a protective cloth might help re-adhere it. For significant damage, contact customer support.
