Troubleshooting
Midlayer feels restrictive during movement
Ensure you are wearing the correct size. If the fit is snug, consider sizing up for more freedom of movement. The 4-way stretch fabric should generally offer good mobility.
Fabric not drying quickly
Verify that you are using a suitable detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can impede moisture-wicking properties. Ensure the garment is not overloaded in the washing machine to allow for proper rinsing.
Zipper is stiff or catching
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth to smooth operation. Ensure the inner zip guard is not obstructing the zipper.
Garment loses softness after washing
Avoid using fabric softeners or harsh detergents. Tumble drying on a low setting can help restore some softness. Check care label instructions for specific recommendations.
