Troubleshooting

Bib and brace does not fit comfortably.

Adjust the shoulder straps for a secure yet comfortable fit. Utilize the adjustable leg length feature to ensure proper inseam.

Pockets do not hold items securely.

Ensure items are placed fully within the pockets. For smaller items, consider using the dedicated pen pocket or ensuring zippers/closures (if applicable to other models) are fastened.

Fabric appears worn after washing.

Verify that washing and drying temperatures adhere to the recommended settings for industrial laundering and that harsh detergents or excessive bleaching agents are not used.

Straps come undone during wear.

Ensure the buckle mechanisms on the straps are fully engaged and locked. Check for any obstructions that might prevent a secure closure.
