Troubleshooting
Headband feels too tight or too loose
The bi-directional elastic fabric is designed for a snug but comfortable fit. Try adjusting the position slightly. If it consistently feels too tight or loose, it may not be the ideal size for your head circumference, though this is uncommon for a one-size-fits-most product.
Reduced cooling or odor control effectiveness
Ensure the headband is clean. Over time, residue from sweat and detergents can affect performance. Follow the recommended washing instructions. Avoid using fabric softeners, which can clog the fabric's pores.
Discoloration or fading
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use. Wash with like colors and avoid harsh detergents or bleach. Air drying in the shade can help preserve colors.
