Troubleshooting
Pants feel too tight in the waist
Utilize the side elastic waistband for a more comfortable fit. Ensure correct waist size was selected if the elastic is fully stretched.
Stains are difficult to remove
Pre-treat the stain before washing. While Teflon repels many stains, some tougher substances may require immediate attention.
Water resistance seems reduced
The DWR coating can degrade over time. Consider re-applying a DWR treatment suitable for outdoor apparel after several washes.
Seams feel strained after heavy use
Inspect seams for excessive wear. While reinforced, extreme stress can occur. Proper sizing and avoiding overstuffing pockets can help.
