Troubleshooting
Water leakage through seams.
Ensure the garment has been washed according to care instructions. Repeated exposure to harsh detergents or high heat can degrade waterproof coatings. If leakage persists, the seam tape may be compromised.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to operate.
Clean the zippers with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Suspenders lose elasticity.
Ensure suspenders are not over-stretched during storage. Washing and drying according to instructions helps maintain elasticity. If elasticity is significantly lost, it may indicate wear and tear.
