Troubleshooting
Insulation appearing flat after storage
Tumble dry the jacket on low heat for 10-15 minutes with clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help restore its loft.
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Ensure no fabric is trapped in the track. You can lubricate the zipper teeth with a small amount of graphite or specialized zipper lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Saikuru Jacket in peak condition, follow these care guidelines:
