Fit feels too loose or baggy
Utilize the adjustable waist, cuffs, and collar straps to tighten the fit and reduce excess material.
Reflective details are peeling
Avoid harsh chemicals or high-heat drying. If peeling is minor, a fabric glue may be used cautiously, but significant damage may require professional repair or replacement.
