Unfortunately, this problem happens constantly if it is not washed properly or very few and when it starts to happen it is inevitable, it is just ready to be recycled (I would recommend washing it at least every month if you are using it daily) and sometimes reactivate the impregnation. The next time you buy one, keep it in mind and you will be able to have it for many more years, you also have to consider how much weight and wear you gave it, sometimes you have to invest in one that has more layers (now Patagonia is doing most with three layers at a good price). I hope it helps you a little. Greetings from Berlin

I have the same issue. Bought mine about 5 years ago, only worn in the rain, and never washed or dried it. The inner white coating is completely gone around the waist up about 3 inches and the same on the sleeves. It flakes like dandruff and is no longer waterproof in those areas, any solution from Patagonia?

Hi @sammeybobbles, have you tried to reapply the repellant? If you scroll down a little bit an answer from Mayer has a guide on how to do it. I'm attaching the link here just in case you aren't able to find it.
Hope this helps!
