Troubleshooting
Tunic fastener is not secure
Ensure the hook & loop fastener is clean and free of lint. Press firmly to secure. If damaged, consider using a temporary fabric adhesive or sewing on a replacement fastener.
Tights feel uncomfortable
Ensure you are wearing the correct size. The elastic waistband should provide a snug but comfortable fit. Try adjusting the position of the enclosed feet.
Hat is misshapen
Gently reshape the foam hat by hand. If creases persist, you can try lightly steaming the hat from a distance (do not saturate) and reshaping.
Printed details are fading
This may occur with excessive wear or improper cleaning. Ensure you are only spot cleaning and avoiding harsh chemicals or rubbing.
