Galvin Green Windstopper - Zip Issue

[jonny1409]

Hi,

Has anyone had an issue with the zip on their Galvin Green Windstopper?

i've had mine about 2 years now and it's been used maybe a few dozen times, but when I went to use it after lockdown the zip simply wouldn't budge!
There were no kinks or anything in the zip, and it's been stored in the wardrobe all the time.

Similar happened to an old coat that also had a plastic zip, so I'm wondering if the zips just swell or something?

Anything I can do to fix or anywhere I can send it to get it fixed or replaced?

Thank you.

I think the zips have a 3 year guarantee on Galvin Green stuff, so check it out and contact them

Have you tried Talcum powder or graphite from a pencil on it?

Thank you.

I contacted GG and they advised I sort with the company I purchased it from (Clubhouse Golf) so I've returned it to them.
Hopefully it'll get sorted.

I haven't as I didn't realise this was 'a thing'.

If I get no joy from Clubhouse Golf though I'll give it a go.

A drop of WD40 or similar lubricates zips.
