Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. If the zipper is stiff, try rubbing a graphite pencil lead along the teeth for lubrication.
Garment feels too loose or too tight
Check the size guide for accurate measurements. This gilet has a regular fit; consider layering options or alternative sizes if needed.
Pilling on the fleece backing
Pilling can occur with normal wear on fleece. Gentle washing and avoiding high heat drying can minimize this. A fabric shaver can be used to remove existing pills.
