Troubleshooting

The DWR coating has likely worn off; wash the garment and reapply a waterproofing spray according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Internal condensation buildup
Ensure your layering system is breathable; avoid wearing non-breathable cotton layers beneath the jacket.
Zipper feels stiff
Clean any debris from the zipper teeth and ensure the fabric guard is not caught in the mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket remains effective, it is essential to follow proper care instructions. Always wash in cool water using a technical cleaner designed for waterproof garments. Avoid biological detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the water-repellent coating. After several washes, you may need to apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to maintain the beading effect of water on the outer shell. Ensure the jacket is fully zipped before laundering to protect the hardware and hook-and-loop fasteners.
