Troubleshooting
Pants feel too tight despite correct size
The skinny fit is intentionally slim. Ensure the waist and length measurements are correct. The stretch fabric should offer some give; if still uncomfortable, consider a different fit or size up.
Fabric loses stretch over time
Avoid excessive heat during washing and drying. High temperatures can degrade the elastane fibers responsible for stretch. Follow care instructions carefully.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. A small amount of graphite from a pencil or a bit of wax can help lubricate the teeth.
