Troubleshooting
Water seeping through seams
Ensure all seams are properly taped. If tape is damaged, professional repair may be needed. Re-waterproofing the garment might also help.
Reduced warmth over time
Check that the padding is evenly distributed and not compressed. Ensure the outer fabric is clean; dirt can trap moisture and reduce insulation.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper track for smoother operation.
Coverall feels too warm during activity
Utilize the zipped under-arm ventilation to increase airflow. Wear lighter layers underneath in milder conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Fort 325 Orwell Waterproof Padded Coverall requires no complex setup; it is ready to wear out of the packaging. It is designed as standalone outerwear. To maintain its waterproof properties and extend its lifespan, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash at a moderate temperature (e.g., 40°C or 104°F) with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impair the waterproof coating.
