Fabric appears wrinkled after washing.
Ensure you are using a gentle wash cycle and consider air drying or low-heat tumble drying. Iron on a medium setting if needed, following care label instructions.
Zipper is difficult to operate.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free the fabric. If the zipper remains stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) can be applied to the teeth.

Ensure the pockets are not overstuffed. Try smoothing them out after wearing or washing. Consistent wear should help them settle.
