not sure if i posted this already and a moderator deleted it, or if i just didn't post it.
anyway you can fix schoeller pilling with a lighter or flame application. the pills should melt off and leave the rest of the fabric untouched. this is the "super secret" method the staff at Arcteryx used to do warranty repair on Schoeller garments returned due to pilling issues.
to avoid pilling in the first place - use liquid detergent instead of solid detergent, and air dry rather than dryer drying.
