Troubleshooting

Minor leaks detected after prolonged use

Check quad-welded seams for any signs of damage. For minor issues, professional seam sealing might be an option. Ensure care instructions are followed to maintain seam integrity.

Reduced breathability or clammy feeling

Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt and residue can impede breathability. Follow care instructions for washing. Check for any blockages in the fabric's pores.

Straps are difficult to adjust

Gently work the adjustment buckles. If they feel stiff, try using a small amount of silicone-based lubricant on the buckle mechanism. Ensure the straps are not twisted.
