Troubleshooting

Suit feels too tight or restrictive.

Check the sizing and fit. You may need a larger size or a different style. Ensure that the suit is properly broken in by wearing it for short periods to allow the leather to soften.

Zippers are sticking or difficult to operate.

Lubricate the zippers with a zipper lubricant or a bar of soap. Avoid forcing the zippers.

Armor feels uncomfortable or misaligned.

Adjust the armor pockets to ensure proper positioning. If the armor still feels uncomfortable, consider replacing it with a different size or type.
