Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof
The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Consider re-waterproofing the jacket using a specialized spray or wash-in treatment designed for outdoor gear. Ensure the jacket is clean before treatment.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Jacket feels clammy inside
This can occur if the fabric's breathability is compromised or if there's a lot of moisture buildup from intense activity. Ensure you are not wearing too many insulating layers underneath. Check that the garment is clean, as dirt can clog pores.
