Troubleshooting
Trousers lose shape after wear
The compact stretch fabric is designed to recover. Allow the trousers to rest after wearing. If shape loss persists, ensure proper care and consider professional cleaning to restore structure.
Wrinkles are difficult to remove
Use a garment steamer for best results. If ironing, use a low heat setting and iron on the reverse side, preferably with a pressing cloth.
Fabric appears dull or loses sheen
