Troubleshooting

Rash vest feels too tight

Check the size guide carefully. If between sizes, consider ordering the next size up due to the fitted nature of the garment. Ensure the garment is not stretched excessively during try-on.

Color fading after washing

Always rinse immediately after use. Hand wash with mild soap in cold water and dry flat in the shade away from direct sunlight to prevent color loss.

Fabric feels stiff after drying

Ensure you are using a mild soap and not harsh detergents. Avoid wringing the garment forcefully. Drying flat in a shaded area should help maintain fabric softness.
