Troubleshooting
Jacket is not fully waterproof.
Ensure all seams are intact and the front storm flap and zipper are fully closed. Re-evaluate wash count as fabric treatments can degrade over time.
Static electricity is still noticeable.
Verify that the jacket is clean and has not been treated with non-approved fabric softeners which can interfere with anti-static properties. Check that the jacket has not exceeded its maximum wash cycles.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a damp cloth and ensure no debris is caught. Avoid forcing the zipper. Mild lubrication might be applied sparingly if necessary, ensuring it's compatible with FR materials.
Breathability seems reduced.
Clean the outer fabric and lining according to care instructions. Excessive dirt or residue can impede breathability. Check for any blockages in vents if applicable.
