Does the jacket have pockets?

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Move the zipper up and down several times to distribute the lubricant.

Jacket feels less wind-resistant than expected.

Ensure all zippers and closures are fully fastened. Check for any tears or holes in the fabric that might be compromising its integrity.

Color fading after washing.

Ensure you are washing in cold water and using a mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight while drying.
