Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If still stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or wax to the teeth.
Jacket is no longer water-resistant.
The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Consider using a commercially available fabric refresher spray designed for outdoor apparel to restore water resistance.
Seams are fraying.
Check the care label for specific washing instructions. Ensure the jacket is not washed with abrasive materials and is dried according to recommendations. Minor fraying can sometimes be secured with a needle and thread.
