Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Clean the zipper teeth with a brush and a mild soap solution. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax specifically designed for zippers.

Ensure all seams are properly sealed and the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating is intact. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment suitable for technical outerwear.
