FAQs

What is Helly Tech® Performance?

Helly Tech® Performance is Helly Hansen's proprietary technology that provides a waterproof, windproof, and breathable barrier, designed for demanding outdoor activities.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold winter weather?

The jacket is insulated for comfort and suitable for cool, wet conditions. For extremely cold weather, layering additional warm clothing underneath is recommended.

How do I remove or attach the hood?

The hood is typically attached or detached via snaps or a zipper located around the neckline. Refer to the specific attachment points on the jacket to operate.

Are the reflective elements durable?

Reflective elements are designed for visibility. While generally durable, their reflectivity can diminish over time with extensive washing and wear.

What material is the jacket made from?

The shell is made of 100% polyamide, and the lining is 100% polyester.

Can I wash the jacket in a washing machine?

Yes, machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water (30°C) using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof

Ensure the jacket is clean. Wash according to care instructions and consider applying a water-repellent finish if performance degrades significantly over time.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Gently try to move the zipper. If it snags, check for fabric caught in the teeth. A small amount of wax or graphite can help lubricate stubborn zippers.

Hood does not stay attached

Ensure the hood is properly secured using the attachment points, typically snaps or a zipper. Check that all fasteners are fully engaged.
