Troubleshooting
Vest feels too tight or loose
Refer to the size chart before purchasing. If already owned, consider if it's being layered with very thick garments underneath. This vest is designed for a relaxed fit.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. A small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant can help smooth operation. Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions, as improper washing can affect the zipper.
Fabric feels rough after washing
This is a characteristic of durable Duck Canvas. Subsequent washes may soften the fabric slightly. Always follow the recommended washing and drying instructions (tumble dry low).
