Troubleshooting
Water-resistant finish seems less effective over time
After extended use, the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may wear off. Apply a fabric-safe technical wash-in or spray-on water repellent treatment.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to move
Ensure no fabric is caught in the track. If it remains stiff, gently rub the teeth with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no complex setup required; the jacket is ready for immediate use. To ensure longevity, follow these care guidelines: machine wash cold using a mild detergent, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can compromise the water-resistant coating. The jacket is designed to be compatible with standard layering systems, allowing you to pair it with thermal base layers or light fleeces depending on the climate. When not in use, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
