Troubleshooting

Pilling or loss of texture

Ensure washing on a cold cycle with like colours and avoid harsh detergents. Hang drying is recommended over tumble drying.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. A small amount of graphite from a pencil tip applied to the zipper teeth can help lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Color fading

Wash inside out in cold water and use a mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.
