No, this is a softshell jacket designed to provide protection from wind and light showers. It features a water-resistant membrane and DWR finish, but it is not fully waterproof and will not withstand heavy or prolonged rain.
The main fabric is a blend of 94% Polyester and 6% Elastane, weighing 290 g/m². It includes a membrane and a DWR finish. The inside collar has a brushed fleece lining.
This jacket is best suited for mild to cool conditions. For colder weather, it can serve as a windproof mid-layer when worn over insulating base layers or under a waterproof/insulated outer shell.
Machine wash on a warm setting (40°C) with a mild liquid detergent and an extra rinse. Tumble dry on low heat. Do not use fabric softener or bleach. Periodically reapply DWR treatment to maintain water repellency.
'Zip in compatible' means the jacket has an internal zipper system that allows it to be connected to specific compatible Helly Hansen inner jackets or liners, creating a unified layering system for enhanced warmth.
The reflective details are designed for durability but should be cared for according to the washing instructions to prevent premature wear or damage. Avoid direct ironing on these areas.
Articulated sleeves are designed with pre-shaped panels and construction to allow for a greater range of motion and natural arm movement, enhancing comfort and performance during active use.
Gently pull the zipper while holding the fabric taut. If still stuck, apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or wax to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper slider.
Clean the jacket thoroughly following care instructions. Reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment using a suitable product designed for outdoor apparel.
Adjust the cuffs using the hook-and-loop closures. Tighten or loosen the elastic drawcord inside the hem pocket for a customized fit around the waist.
Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the membrane's pores. Wash according to care instructions. Avoid using fabric softeners, which can degrade the fabric's performance.
Setup:
This jacket requires no assembly. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. Ensure all zippers are functional before first use.
