i TRIED to wear my jacket last night but could not get the zipper to zip....it is a known issue w/ stormr's that the zippers are difficult, anyone else having issues? and more importantly, found a solution?!
I have trouble with mine too. I have found you must push the pin very hard into the box. It kind of snaps in. Then it zips no problem.

Zipper wax. When I used to scuba dive had to lub the zipper on my dry suit. Find a dive shop or go online and order zipper wax.

Steve is right. But, you don't need a dive shop. You can get it on Amazon for a few bucks. It made the zippers on my Storm much easier t close.
