Troubleshooting
Zipper is stuck
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Check for any fabric caught in the slider. If necessary, apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or wax to the zipper teeth to help it glide.
Fabric appears wrinkled after storage
Hang the garment in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric. Always refer to the dry cleaning recommendation for significant wrinkles.
Buckle detail feels loose
Examine the attachment points of the buckle. If it seems insecure, consult a professional tailor or dry cleaner who offers repair services.
