Troubleshooting
Jacket no longer repelling water effectively
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a DWR treatment according to the product's instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Ensure the zipper is free of debris. Gently work the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of wax or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth if necessary.
Jacket feels clammy or less breathable
Check for blockages in the fabric's pores. Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can reduce breathability. Wash the jacket following care instructions.

Ensure the toggle adjuster on the hood is tightened correctly to secure the fit.
