Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently pull the zipper while holding the fabric taut. If necessary, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid using oil-based lubricants that can stain the fabric.
Fleece lining feels matted or less soft
Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying instructions. Avoid high heat drying, which can damage the fleece fibers. A low-heat tumble dry with dryer balls can help restore loft.
Print or embroidery is damaged
This usually occurs due to improper care. Avoid high heat ironing directly on the decorated areas. If the issue is with a new customisation, contact the service provider.
