Troubleshooting
Shrinking after washing
Ensure you are following the care instructions precisely, especially regarding water temperature and tumble dry settings. Avoid excessive heat.
Button fly is stiff
The button fly may require a short break-in period. Gently work the buttons through the buttonholes a few times. Avoid forcing them.
