Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff
Gently pull the fabric around the zipper to ensure it is not caught. If still stiff, a small amount of graphite from a pencil rubbed on the teeth can help.
Fleece feels less soft after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can break down fleece fibers. Tumble drying on low heat can sometimes restore softness.
Seams are causing irritation
Ensure the garment is the correct size. For prolonged wear, check that the flatlock seams are positioned away from sensitive areas where possible.
