Down feathers leaking
This can occasionally happen. Gently pull the feather back through the fabric if possible. If leakage is significant, contact customer support.
Waistcoat appears flat after washing
Place the waistcoat in a tumble dryer on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls. This will help to re-fluff the down insulation.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move it back and forth. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) to the zipper teeth if needed.
