Troubleshooting
Jacket is leaking water
Ensure the DRYGUARD membrane is intact and not damaged. Check that the front zip placket is fully closed and sealing correctly. Reapply a fabric waterproofing treatment to the outer shell if it appears to be absorbing water.
Protectors feel uncomfortable or shift
Verify that the protectors are the correct size for the pockets and are seated properly. Adjust the cuff and sleeve fit using the available adjustment tabs. Ensure the jacket size is appropriate for your build.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth if it remains stiff.
Hood is flapping at speed
Secure the anti-flap hood fastener to keep the hood tidy and prevent it from becoming a distraction or hazard. Ensure the hood drawstring is tightened appropriately.
