Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently pull the zipper while ensuring the fabric around it is smooth. If still stiff, a small amount of beeswax or a zipper lubricant can be applied to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.
Fabric has lost its shape.
Ensure the garment has been hand-washed and laid flat to dry as per care instructions. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, which can damage the fabric's structure.
Discoloration of gold-tone hardware.
Wipe hardware with a soft, dry cloth after use. Avoid contact with harsh chemicals, salt water, or chlorine for extended periods. Rinse with fresh water after swimming.
Sizing feels incorrect.
Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. Ensure the correct size (L in this case) has been selected. The structured fit is intended to be snug.
