Can I print my company logo on this jacket?

What material is the jacket made from?

Troubleshooting

Water is penetrating the seams.

Ensure all zippers are fully closed. If the issue persists after a few washes, the seam tape may be compromised. Check care label instructions and consider professional re-sealing if possible, or replacement.

Sleeves are difficult to detach or reattach.

Ensure the zipper is clean and free from debris. Gently pull the zipper while holding the fabric taut. If a zipper is stuck, do not force it; try using a graphite pencil or wax on the teeth to lubricate.

Reflective tape appears to be peeling or damaged.

Avoid harsh chemicals, high heat drying, and excessive ironing, as these can damage the reflective material. If minor peeling occurs, do not attempt to reapply. For significant damage, the garment's visibility rating may be compromised, and replacement is recommended.

Jacket loses its water-repellent finish.

The stain-resistant finish may diminish over time. Use a specialized reproofing spray suitable for outdoor fabrics after washing to restore water repellency. Follow the product's application instructions carefully.
