Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to align the zipper tracks. If resistance persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a wax-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Jacket feels tight or restrictive
Verify you have selected the correct size. For minor restrictions, ensure all closures (zipper, hood toggles) are loosened. If the size is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure you followed the care instructions precisely. Avoid using fabric softeners, which can degrade waterproof and breathable membranes. Tumble drying on low heat can help restore some softness.
