Troubleshooting
Fabric feels damp after workout.
Ensure the garment is not overloaded in the washing machine to allow for proper rinsing of sweat-wicking agents. Always follow care instructions for optimal performance.
Excessive heat during activity.
Adjust the quarter-zip collar to increase ventilation. If conditions are very warm, consider wearing a lighter base layer or using the top only for cooler parts of your workout.
Zipper snagging.
Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth. Ensure the fabric is flat around the zipper before zipping. If persistent, check for any loose threads caught in the mechanism.
