Troubleshooting
Water-repellency seems reduced
Over time, the water-repellent finish can diminish. Consider a professional re-treatment or a specialist fabric care product designed to restore water repellency. Ensure the jacket is clean before any re-treatment.
Jacket feels stiff after cleaning
This can happen if the fabric has dried out. Ensure the jacket is fully dry after cleaning. If stiffness persists, consult a professional dry cleaner. Avoid harsh detergents or high heat drying.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
