FAQs
What is the primary purpose of the Helly Tech® Protection?
Helly Tech® Protection is a technology that makes the jacket waterproof, windproof, and breathable, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable in challenging weather conditions.
Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?
The jacket is designed for warmth with its fleece lining, making it suitable for cool to moderately cold conditions. For extreme cold, it is recommended to layer it over additional insulating clothing.
How do I get my crew's logo put on the jacket?
The jacket features a "secret" zipper inside that makes it embroidery-friendly. You can take it to a professional embroidery service to have logos or names added.
Is the jacket suitable for activities other than sailing?
Yes, its waterproof, windproof, and warm features make it suitable for a variety of outdoor activities such as hiking, fishing, and general outdoor wear in cooler weather.
How should I adjust the fit of the jacket?
The jacket features adjustable elements at the hem and cuffs, allowing you to customize the fit to prevent wind and water ingress.
What if the jacket feels too large or too small?
It is important to consult the Helly Hansen sizing chart before purchasing, as this particular model's sizing may vary. If the fit is not optimal, consider exchanging for a different size.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof/water beads are not forming
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and reapply a DWR treatment according to the product's instructions.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to operate
Ensure the zipper area is clean and free of debris. Gently lubricate the zipper teeth with a wax-based product (like beeswax or a graphite pencil) and carefully work the zipper up and down.
Fleece lining feels damp after washing
Ensure the jacket is not overloaded in the washing machine and that adequate rinsing has occurred. Hang dry completely in a well-ventilated area; avoid direct heat which can damage the fabric.
