Troubleshooting
Tights feel too tight.
Check the sizing chart and consider sizing up for a more comfortable fit. Ensure that you have adjusted the bib straps for optimal comfort.
Water is soaking through the fabric.
The tights are water-repellent, not waterproof. If exposed to heavy rain, water may penetrate. Reapply a DWR treatment to the fabric.
