Troubleshooting
Jacket feels too tight or restrictive.
Ensure the correct size is worn. Adjust armor and internal straps to allow a full range of motion. Consider removing the windbreaker liner or wearing a thinner base layer.
Poor ventilation.
Ensure all vents are open. Check that nothing is blocking the mesh panels. Make sure you're riding in a position that allows air to flow through the jacket.
Liner doesn't fit properly.
Double-check that the liner is correctly attached to the jacket. Ensure it's properly zipped or snapped in place. If it still doesn't fit correctly, contact customer support.
Armor feels uncomfortable.
Re-adjust the armor. Check for any pressure points. Consider using different armor if the existing armor is not comfortable.
