It features a PFC-free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, which helps shed light rain, but it is not a fully waterproof rain jacket.
The Helvetia II follows standard women's sizing; however, the cropped cut means you may want to size up if you prefer a looser, more oversized fit.
It is best to air dry to protect the material, but if you must use a machine, select the lowest heat and most delicate setting.
The drawcord allows you to cinch the hem of the fleece tighter against your body to trap body heat and block cold wind from entering.
The pocket is sized for small essentials; it can accommodate most standard-sized smartphones, though larger plus-sized phones may be a tight fit.
Gently grip the fabric near the snap base rather than pulling on the fabric itself to distribute pressure evenly while opening.
Once dry, use a soft-bristle garment brush or a wide-tooth comb to gently fluff the fibers back to their original loft.
The Columbia Helvetia II requires no complex setup; simply adjust the drawcord at the hem once to your preferred tightness to optimize warmth. It pairs seamlessly with high-waisted denim or technical outdoor pants. To care for the garment, wash on a gentle cycle in cool water with like colors to maintain the texture of the Sherpa fabric. Avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as they can degrade the performance of the DWR finish. Always air dry or tumble dry on the lowest heat setting to prevent matting the fleece.
