Can the rubber badge on the sleeve be removed?

What is the benefit of the recycled polyester?
Using recycled polyester in the quilted body contributes to environmental sustainability by utilizing pre-existing materials.

Follow the care label instructions: generally, machine wash cold with like colors, do not bleach, tumble dry low or hang dry, and cool iron if needed. Avoid dry cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper. If still stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
Seams appear to be separating
If the separation is minor, a few careful stitches with a needle and thread can often repair it. For significant seam damage, professional repair may be necessary.
Material feels less soft after washing
Ensure you are following the care instructions precisely. Using a fabric softener specifically designed for the materials (check garment label) might help restore softness. Avoid high heat drying.
