kitenski, not really a fabric fault though is it, it's a manufacturing problem if anything.

seamgrip would probably be the stuff if you want to repair it yourself

correct, but the wording of the guarantee does not say it has to be a fabric fault. My goretex boots split down a seam after 3 years and I got their value back.

halfhand, try the manufacturer.
End of last year I had a (really quite old) triple layer jacket replaced under a lifetime guarantee. The fabric had delaminated.

Your first call is the retailer who sold you the jacket. Your contract was with them, and so if the item has not performed as expected then it is the retailer who need to rectify that.
What has the retailer said??

Thanks for the advice everyone:
RobW, Not contacted the retailer yet (only noticed the damage over the weekend whilst I was away) but as the jacket is over 2 years old I didn't think I'd have any recourse there.
Hells Bells, Yes it looks like it's come away as opposed to a rip.
kitenski, Thanks I'll look in to this plus the other tips.
Cheers again

I have a Nike ACG goretex jacket with the same problem on the sleeve pocket.
Tk Maxx job. Seam grip sounds good.

You know it makes sense.

Confirms my dim view of Nike ACG products. I have one of their Goretex Paclite jackets and the build quality is rubbish. I also have a pair of their mtb shorts, again rubbish quality. So I totally avoid the ACG brand now.
