Troubleshooting
Shrinking after washing
Ensure you are washing in cold water and tumble drying on a low heat setting. For best results, consider line drying.
Embroidery is fading or peeling
Wash the garment inside out and avoid direct ironing on the embroidered area. Use a cool iron setting if needed.
Pilling on the fabric surface
Pilling can occur with fleece-lined garments. Regularly wash inside out and use a fabric shaver carefully if pilling becomes excessive.
Zipper is sticking
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away. You can also try rubbing a pencil lead or a small amount of wax along the zipper teeth to help it glide smoothly.
