FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
The Crew 2.0 Jacket is a waterproof and windproof shell with a comfortable lining. It is designed as an outer layer and provides good protection against wind and rain. For very cold conditions, layering with insulated mid-layers is recommended.
How do I know if I need to re-apply the DWR treatment?
You can test the DWR by sprinkling water on the jacket fabric. If the water beads up and rolls off, the treatment is still effective. If the water soaks into the fabric, it's time to re-apply.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, the jacket can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with cool water (30°C or 40°C) and a liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach.
What does HELLY TECH® Protection mean?
HELLY TECH® Protection is Helly Hansen's proprietary technology that provides a waterproof, windproof, and breathable barrier, ensuring you stay dry from the outside and comfortable from the inside.
What is the difference between the Crew 2.0 Jacket and other Crew models?
The Crew 2.0 Jacket features an updated lining for easier on-and-off, along with articulated shoulders and elbows for improved freedom of movement compared to some earlier versions. Specific material compositions and features can vary slightly between different Crew models.
Is this jacket made with PFC-free materials?
Yes, the jacket is certified PFC-free, indicating a more environmentally conscious manufacturing process regarding perfluorinated chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer shedding water effectively.
The Durable Water Repellency (DWR) treatment may have worn off. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and then apply a suitable DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment as per the product's guidelines.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap. Lubricate the zipper track with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.
Inner lining feels sticky or clings to clothing.
Ensure the jacket is completely dry after washing. If the issue persists, the DWR treatment or fabric may require reapplication or cleaning with a specialized technical garment wash.
Seam seals are peeling.
This indicates a potential failure of the seam taping. Contact Helly Hansen customer support for warranty information or repair options.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent waterproof and windproof performance for protection against the elements.
- Breathable fabric ensures comfort during physical activity by preventing moisture buildup.
- Thoughtful design features like fleece-lined pockets and easy-to-wear lining enhance comfort.
- Adjustable elements (cuffs, hem) allow for a personalized and secure fit.
- Durable construction suitable for both demanding outdoor activities and casual wear.
Cons
- The regular fit may not be ideal for individuals preferring a more tailored or relaxed silhouette.
- While versatile, it is primarily designed with sailing and outdoor activities in mind, potentially limiting its aesthetic for high-fashion urban use.
- No internal pockets are explicitly mentioned in the product description for secure storage of small items.
- The weight of 600.0 gCB suggests it's a mid-weight jacket, possibly not warm enough for extreme cold without additional layers.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.
Compatibility: While designed with sailing in mind, its general weather protection makes it compatible with a wide range of outdoor activities and casual wear. It functions as an outer layer over various types of clothing, from t-shirts to mid-layer fleeces.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash in cool water (30°C or 40°C) on a gentle cycle.
- Detergent: Use a liquid detergent. Do not use fabric softener or bleach, as these can impair the fabric's performance.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators.
- Re-proofing: To maintain water repellency, consider using a fabric re-proofer suitable for waterproof-technical outerwear periodically, following the product's specific instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-proofing.
