Troubleshooting

Vest does not seem reflective.

Ensure the vest is worn correctly over clothing. Reflective material requires an external light source (like headlights or ambient light) to be seen. Check for dirt or damage on the reflective strips; clean gently if necessary.

Zip is difficult to use.

Ensure the fabric is clear of the zipper teeth. If the zipper feels stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the teeth.

Vest is too tight or too loose.

Check the size guide against the child's measurements. If the fit is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size. The vest should fit comfortably over clothing without being restrictive.
