Product Information

Full details

This Helly Hansen Reversible Down Jacket is designed for adult males seeking versatile warmth and weather protection for Fall/Winter 2022. Its key benefit is providing natural down insulation and durable water repellency in a reversible design. A potential caveat is that its waterproofing is rated at the second of three levels, meaning it's best suited for light rain or snow. This jacket offers a PFC-free construction, recycled polyester materials, zip closure with a rain flap, elasticated cuffs and hem, and secure side pockets.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket features a durable water-repellent finish, which is rated at the second of three levels of waterproofing. It is suitable for light rain and snow but not for prolonged exposure to heavy precipitation.

What is the insulation made of?

The insulation is comprised of 80% natural down and 20% feathers, providing excellent warmth and loft.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold temperatures?

Yes, the natural down insulation provides significant warmth and is suitable for cold fall and winter weather. For extreme cold, layering underneath is recommended.

How do I clean the jacket?

It is best to machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a down-specific detergent and tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls. Avoid harsh chemicals and high heat.

What does PFC-free mean?

PFC-free means the jacket's fabric treatment does not contain perfluorinated chemicals, which are chemicals that can be harmful to the environment. This jacket uses an alternative, more eco-friendly water-repellent finish.

How do I reverse the jacket?

The jacket is designed to be easily reversible. Simply pull it off and put it back on inside out to reveal the alternate color or design.

What sizes are available?

This specific product listing is for a size Medium (M). Other sizes such as Small (S), Large (L), and Extra Large (XL) are available in the same model and color.

Troubleshooting

Down is clumping or losing loft.

Ensure the jacket is completely dry after washing. Use dryer balls on a low heat setting to re-fluff the down. If the issue persists, consider professional cleaning for down garments.

Water repellency is reduced.

Reapply a PFC-free DWR treatment spray according to the product instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before reapplication for best results.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to close.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a wax-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal fit and comfort.

Compatibility: This jacket is designed for general outdoor and casual wear during cooler seasons. It pairs well with various layers underneath, such as t-shirts, long-sleeve shirts, or light sweaters.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a down-specific detergent. Use a tennis ball or dryer balls in the dryer to help re-fluff the down.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing to prevent clumping of the down.
  • Repellency: The water-repellent finish may diminish over time with wear and washing. Reapplication of a PFC-free DWR spray can help restore its performance.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid compressing the jacket for long periods to maintain the loft of the down insulation.
