Troubleshooting
Jersey feels slightly tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Consult the sizing chart if unsure. The 'slim fit' is designed for a performance-oriented feel; consider sizing up if a looser fit is preferred.
Fabric is not wicking moisture effectively
Check if fabric care instructions have been followed. Avoid fabric softeners and ensure the jersey is washed with a suitable detergent. Rinse thoroughly.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, check for any debris or damage to the zipper teeth.
Reflective details are peeling
This may indicate excessive heat during washing or drying. Always follow the recommended low-heat or air-dry instructions for care.
