Troubleshooting
Base layer feels damp after activity
Ensure the fabric is not overloaded with sweat. For very intense activity, a lighter layer might be needed. Always check that washing has not included fabric softener, which can impede wicking.
Chafing or irritation
Double-check that the garment is the correct size. The ultra-soft seams and flatlock stitching are designed to prevent this, but incorrect sizing can still cause issues. Ensure seams are lying flat.
Reduced UV protection or breathability
This can occur if the garment is heavily soiled or has been treated with fabric softeners. Wash according to care instructions, avoiding softeners, to restore performance.
Zipper is difficult to move
Gently pull the zipper. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. If stiff, a small amount of graphite from a pencil tip can be applied to the zipper teeth.
