Troubleshooting
Suspending buttons are difficult to adjust
Ensure the suspender straps are not twisted and are properly aligned with the attachment points. The elastic may be stiff initially; regular use will soften it.
Stitching appears to be coming loose
Inspect the seams. If a main seam is genuinely unraveling, contact customer support. Minor fraying on pocket edges is normal wear and tear for heavy-duty workwear.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
This is characteristic of heavyweight cotton duck. The fabric will soften with repeated wear and washing. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the cotton fibers over time.
Pockets seem too tight for tools
The pockets are designed for specific tools and may require a brief break-in period. Avoid overstuffing pockets to maintain their shape and integrity.
