Ensure the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment is intact. Reapply a DWR treatment if it has worn off, following product instructions. Allow the jacket to air dry completely.
Zipper is sticking.
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it continues to stick, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid excessive force.
