How do I wash the jacket to maintain its performance?

Does the hood offer adjustable tightening?

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not as waterproof as expected

Ensure all zippers are fully closed and check for any damage to taped seams. Re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment if necessary, following product instructions.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Check for any fabric caught in the teeth. Lubricate the zipper with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.

Jacket feels too tight or restrictive

Adjust the drawcords at the waist and hem for a more personalized fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers, as layering too heavily might affect the ergonomic fit.

Reflective trim is peeling

Avoid high heat during washing and drying. If peeling has started, avoid further abrasion. Professional repair may be needed for significant damage.
