FAQs
What is Helly Tech® Performance?
Helly Tech® Performance is a technology that provides a waterproof, windproof, and breathable membrane, designed for a wide range of outdoor activities in demanding conditions. It ensures you stay dry from the outside and comfortable from the inside.
How do I wash my Munich Raincoat?
Machine wash in cool water (30-40°C) on a gentle cycle with liquid detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat.
Can I wear this in cold weather?
The Munich Raincoat is primarily designed for protection against rain and wind. For colder weather, you will need to layer insulating clothing underneath, such as a fleece jacket or a down vest.
What does the '2-way stretch' mean?
2-way stretch fabric means the material can stretch in two directions (typically horizontally and vertically). This provides greater flexibility and comfort, allowing for easier movement.
How often should I reapply DWR treatment?
The frequency depends on usage and how often you wash the garment. Generally, you should reapply DWR when water no longer beads up on the fabric surface. Washing and a low-heat tumble dry can often reactivate the existing treatment.
What is the purpose of the double storm flap?
The double storm flap is designed to cover the main front zipper, providing an extra barrier against wind and water penetration, ensuring maximum protection from the elements.
Is the jacket suitable for heavy rain?
Yes, the Helly Tech® Performance construction, fully sealed seams, and double storm flap are engineered to provide full protection from heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Water is seeping through the fabric.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment may need to be reactivated. Follow the care instructions to wash and tumble dry, or apply a DWR re-treatment spray.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and warm water. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the zipper teeth to improve its glide.
Hood is not staying in place.
Adjust the drawcord on the hood to tighten it around your head. Ensure the drawcord is securely fastened.
Pockets feel damp inside.
Ensure all zippers are fully closed to prevent water entry. Check that the outer fabric's DWR is functioning correctly.
