Troubleshooting
Jacket feels tight or restrictive
Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers. If still too tight, consider trying the next size up or refer to the size chart for accurate measurements.
Water is soaking through the fabric in rain
The jacket is water-repellent, not waterproof. For heavy or prolonged rain, a dedicated waterproof jacket is recommended. You may need to reapply a DWR treatment to the jacket if its water-repellent properties have diminished over time.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of wax or silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Jacket has lost its wind-resistant effectiveness
The fabric's properties may degrade over time. Ensure the jacket is clean. If issues persist, consider reproofing treatments designed for softshell fabrics.
