Troubleshooting
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a cold wash and avoiding harsh detergents. Tumble dry on low or hang dry instead of high heat. Avoid dry cleaning.
Zipper is difficult to move
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to pull the fabric away. If persistent, apply a small amount of lubricant like graphite from a pencil lead to the teeth.
Water repellency seems reduced
Wash the gilet according to care instructions and tumble dry on low heat, as heat can reactivate the DWR (durable water repellent) finish. Avoid fabric softeners, which can impede water repellency.
