Helly Hansen Seven J Breathable Rain Jacket - Purple - XS

Yes, the Helly Tech® Protection and sealed seams make it waterproof and suitable for heavy rain.

The Helly Tech® Protection technology is designed to be breathable, allowing moisture vapor to escape and keeping you comfortable during activity.

This jacket provides wind and rain protection but offers minimal insulation. For winter, it's best worn as an outer shell over warm mid-layers.

Machine wash in cold water (30°C) on a gentle cycle with liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.

The jacket features essential pockets, but it is designed with a clean, minimalist aesthetic, so the number of pockets is limited.

This is a soft fabric flap at the top of the zipper to prevent the metal or plastic zipper pull from irritating your chin.

Reapply DWR treatment as needed, typically when water no longer beads up on the surface and starts to soak into the fabric. This might be after several washes or prolonged use.

The DWR coating may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a suitable DWR treatment following product instructions.

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a mild soap, then dry thoroughly. A small amount of wax can also help.

This could be due to condensation. Ensure the hood and cuffs are properly adjusted and consider wearing moisture-wicking base layers. If breathability is compromised, the DWR may need reapplication.

The jacket is designed for wind protection, not insulation. Layer with a fleece or insulated mid-layer for added warmth in colder temperatures.
