Troubleshooting

Waistcoat appears wrinkled

Gently steam the garment or iron on a low setting while slightly damp. Avoid direct high heat.

Buttons feel loose

If buttons feel insecure, a tailor can re-secure them. For minor looseness, a needle and thread can be used carefully.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and cool water. For linen blends, dry cleaning is often best to maintain softness.

Fit is too tight or too loose

Consider professional tailoring for alterations. Given the slim fit, check the size guide carefully before purchasing.
