Troubleshooting
Jacket appears to be losing its waterproof quality.
Ensure the garment has not exceeded 25 washes. Check for damage to the fabric or seams. Reapply a suitable waterproofing treatment if necessary, following product instructions.
Jacket feels clammy or less breathable.
The breathability rating (MVP 3,000g/m²/24hrs) is designed for active use. Ensure interior layers are not trapping moisture. Wash the jacket according to care instructions to remove any potential build-up.
Reflective tape is peeling or damaged.
Avoid high heat and harsh detergents. Refrain from ironing directly on the tape. If damage occurs, the garment's Class 3 visibility may be compromised.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to operate.
Ensure the storm flap is not caught in the zipper. Clean the zipper teeth gently with a damp cloth and mild soap, then dry thoroughly. Lubricate with a graphite pencil if needed.
