FAQs

What is HELLY TECH® PROTECTION?

HELLY TECH® PROTECTION is Helly Hansen's proprietary technology that provides a waterproof, windproof, and breathable barrier, designed to keep you dry and comfortable in various weather conditions.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softener and bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

This jacket is primarily a rain shell and offers limited insulation. It is designed to be worn over other layers. For very cold weather, you would need to add insulating layers underneath.

What does Bluesign® main material mean?

It signifies that the primary material used in the jacket has been manufactured following strict environmental and safety standards set by Bluesign®, ensuring responsible resource use and reduced impact on people and the environment.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The hand pockets feature secure zip closures, which help protect the contents from rain and moisture. The chest pocket has a snap button closure.

How do I adjust the hood?

The hood features a flexible brim and adjustable drawcords, typically with toggles, allowing you to tighten or loosen it for a secure and personalized fit.

What is the fit of this jacket?

The jacket has a boxy fit, designed for comfort and ease of movement, and inspired by utilitarian styles.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer shedding water (beading)

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment may have worn off. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and apply a new DWR treatment spray suitable for technical outerwear. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before application.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth for smoother operation.

Jacket feels clammy or less breathable

Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can impede breathability. Check that the inner layers are not trapping moisture. Consider washing the jacket if it hasn't been cleaned recently.

Hood adjustment is not secure

Check that the drawcords and toggles are functioning correctly. Ensure they are fully tightened. If the toggles are damaged, they may need replacement.

Pros and Cons

  • Waterproof and breathable performance for wet weather.
  • Multiple secure pocket options for convenient storage.
  • Adjustable hood, cuffs, and hem for a customizable fit.
  • Durable construction inspired by professional outdoor gear.
  • Sustainable material sourcing (Bluesign®).

Cons

  • Boxy fit may not be ideal for those seeking a tailored silhouette.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. Simply unpack and wear. Ensure all zippers are closed and adjustments (hood, cuffs, hem) are made to your preference before heading out in wet weather.

Compatibility: Designed as outerwear, it is compatible with a wide range of clothing layers suitable for adult males. Its primary function is weather protection, making it suitable for casual wear, commuting, and light outdoor activities in rain and wind.

Care:

  1. Washing: Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener or bleach.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the waterproof membrane.
  3. Re-waterproofing: For optimal performance, consider using a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) re-treatment spray specifically designed for waterproof-technical fabrics every 6-12 months, or when water no longer beads on the surface. Follow the product instructions for application.
