Troubleshooting
Gilet feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size by checking the size guide. If the fit is still restrictive, consider a larger size.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away. If the zipper remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead to the teeth.
