FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
The jacket is designed for protection against wind and water and includes fleece-lined pockets and collar for warmth. It is ideal for layering in colder conditions but may require a substantial insulating layer underneath for extreme cold.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash in warm water at 40°C on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can affect the fabric's performance.
What does 'HELLY TECH® Protection' mean?
HELLY TECH® Protection is Helly Hansen's proprietary technology that provides a waterproof, windproof, and breathable membrane, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable in various weather conditions.
Can I put this jacket in the dryer?
It is recommended to air dry the jacket to preserve its waterproof and breathable properties. If tumble drying is necessary, use a low heat setting and remove promptly.
What is the purpose of the DWR treatment?
DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. This treatment causes water to bead up and roll off the fabric surface, preventing the outer material from becoming saturated and maintaining the jacket's breathability.
Is this jacket suitable for men?
This specific model is designed for women. Helly Hansen offers a range of jackets for men with similar technologies and features.
Can I add patches or embroidery to this jacket?
Yes, the jacket is designed to be embroidery friendly, making it suitable for personalization with logos or custom designs.
Troubleshooting
Water is leaking through seams
Ensure all seams are properly sealed. If the DWR treatment has worn off, consider a re-waterproofing treatment. Check that the jacket has not been damaged.
Jacket feels clammy or less breathable
Check for blockages in ventilation areas if any. Ensure the interior is clean from excessive dirt or oils which can impede breathability. Wash according to care instructions.
Zipper is difficult to use
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Clean the zipper teeth gently with a damp cloth. Lubricate with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant if needed.
Cuffs or hem are not staying adjusted
Ensure the drawcords are properly threaded and the toggles are functioning. Check for any damage to the drawcords or toggles.
