Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and apply a suitable re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment according to product instructions.
Jacket feels damp inside, but it's not raining
This may be due to insufficient breathability. Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the fabric pores. Check that the care instructions for washing and rinsing were followed correctly.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. You can then use a graphite pencil or a small amount of wax to lubricate the zipper.
Hood is not staying in place
Ensure the hood is pulled on correctly. Some models may have an elasticated or adjustable drawstring around the hood edge for a more secure fit; check if yours has this feature and adjust accordingly.
