Troubleshooting
Jacket feels clammy or wet inside
Ensure the WP zippers are fully closed. Check if the breathability is overwhelmed by excessive internal moisture (e.g., heavy sweating). If the DWR coating has worn off, clean the jacket and reapply a DWR treatment.
Water is seeping through seams or zippers
Inspect seams for damage. While designed to be waterproof, extreme prolonged submersion or damage could compromise integrity. Ensure WP zippers are properly sealed and not damaged.
Hood is difficult to detach or reattach
Check for debris or obstructions in the zipper mechanism connecting the hood. Gently guide the zipper to reattach the hood.
Reflex printing is peeling or fading
Avoid high heat drying and harsh detergents. Gentle washing and air drying can help preserve the print. If significant peeling occurs, contact customer support.
