FAQs
What does 'HELLY TECH Protection' mean?
HELLY TECH Protection is Helly Hansen's durable outer layer membrane that keeps water molecules out while allowing water vapor (sweat) to escape, ensuring you stay dry from both the outside and inside.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
This jacket provides waterproof, windproof, and breathable protection. For very cold weather, it is designed to be layered over insulating clothing like fleece or down.
How do I determine if an XS size is correct for me?
Refer to the Helly Hansen size chart for women's apparel, paying close attention to the bust, waist, and hip measurements for an XS.
Can I wear this jacket for intense physical activity like running?
Yes, the breathable nature of the HELLY TECH Protection fabric makes it suitable for moderate to intense physical activity, helping to manage sweat.
What is the main advantage of the YKK zipper?
YKK zippers are known for their high quality, durability, and smooth operation, ensuring reliable function even with frequent use and exposure to the elements.
How often should I re-waterproof the jacket?
Re-waterproofing is recommended when you notice water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface, typically after significant wear or washing cycles.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the zipper is clear of debris. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the zipper teeth. Make sure the fabric is not caught in the zipper.
Jacket feels clammy inside.
This can occur if the internal moisture is not escaping. Ensure the jacket is zipped up fully to utilize the HELLY TECH Protection breathability. Reduce physical exertion or remove a layer underneath if possible.
Water is seeping through the fabric.
Check the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. If it's worn off, the jacket may need re-waterproofing treatment. Ensure all seams and closures are properly sealed.
