Product Information

Full details

The Helly Hansen Verglas Hooded Down Jacket 2.0 is designed for outdoor enthusiasts who need a reliable, versatile insulation layer for year-round mountain activities. Its primary benefit is the hydrophobic down treatment, which keeps you warm even in damp, snowy conditions, making it an excellent standalone jacket or midlayer. One caveat to keep in mind is that while the down is treated to be water-resistant, this is not a fully waterproof rain jacket, so it should be paired with a shell in heavy precipitation.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, it is designed for water resistance. While the down is hydrophobic, the shell is not fully waterproof and should be paired with a shell in heavy rain.

Can I use this for skiing?

Yes, it is excellent for skiing as a midlayer beneath a waterproof shell or as a stand-alone jacket on cold, clear days.

How do I pack the jacket?

The jacket is designed to be stuffed into one of its own internal or hand pockets, making it easy to store in a pack.

What does bluesign® certification mean?

It means the product was manufactured using sustainable practices and chemicals, minimizing the impact on the environment and workers.

Should I size up for layering?

The jacket fits true to size as a midlayer; if you prefer a very loose fit, you may consider sizing up, though it is designed to fit under most standard shells.

Troubleshooting

The down insulation appears to be clumping together.

Tumble dry the jacket on low heat with dryer balls to break up the clumps and restore loft.

Water is no longer beading off the fabric surface.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may need to be reapplied using a spray-on treatment after a thorough cleaning.

Small feathers are poking through the fabric.

This is common with down garments; gently pull the feather back from the inside if possible, or massage the fabric to close the gap.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Retains warmth when damp due to hydrophobic down treatment
  • Highly packable design perfect for multi-day trips
  • bluesign® certified for environmental sustainability
  • Dual-functionality as an outer or midlayer
  • Includes secure inner storage pocket

Cons

  • Not intended for use as a primary waterproof rain jacket
  • Down requires specific care during laundering to maintain loft
  • Fit may be bulky if worn under a slim-fitting shell

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Verglas jacket, proper care is essential. When washing, always use a specialized down detergent and front-loading machine on a gentle cycle. After washing, tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help redistribute the down and restore its original loft. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can compromise the hydrophobic DWR treatment. For storage, avoid compressing the jacket for long periods; hang it in a cool, dry place to allow the down to stay breathable and healthy.
