Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.
Ensure the jacket is clean. Wash using a specific technical wash designed for waterproof outerwear, and reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish if needed, following product instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush. Apply a wax-based lubricant (like a graphite pencil tip or a zipper lubricant) to the teeth to improve sliding action.
Jacket feels clammy inside.
