Troubleshooting
Garment feels too tight or restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the brand's sizing chart. If the issue persists, consider if you are accustomed to compression wear, as initial wear can feel snug.
Fabric losing elasticity
Follow care instructions precisely. Avoid high heat in washing or drying, and do not use fabric softeners, as these can degrade the fabric's compression properties.
Chafing during activity
Verify the fit is correct. Ensure the garment is smooth and not bunched up. Consider wearing it with appropriate undergarments if needed.
