FAQs

What type of activities is this jacket best suited for?

The jacket is versatile and suitable for urban commuting, city exploration, outdoor adventures, hiking, and sea trips. It's designed for all-day wear in various conditions.

How does the HELLY TECH® Protection work?

HELLY TECH® Protection is a waterproof, windproof, and breathable membrane technology. It keeps water molecules from the outside out while allowing moisture vapor from the inside to escape, keeping you dry and comfortable.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

Yes, it can be worn in cold weather by layering a warm mid-layer (like a fleece or insulated jacket) underneath. The jacket itself is primarily a waterproof shell and does not provide significant insulation on its own.

What is the jacket made of?

The outer fabric is 100% polyester, with a 100% polyester lining and a secondary 100% polyamide lining.

How do I wash the jacket?

Machine wash at a mild temperature of 40°C with similar colors. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low heat and iron on low temperature if needed. Do not dry clean.

Does the jacket have a hood?

Yes, the jacket features an adjustable hood that can be customized for a snug fit.

Is this jacket suitable for women?

This specific model is designed for men. Helly Hansen may offer similar styles in women's versions.

Troubleshooting

Jacket no longer feels waterproof

Ensure the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating is intact. Clean the jacket according to care instructions. Reapply a DWR treatment if necessary.

Zipper is stiff or stuck

Gently try to move the zipper. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the zipper teeth and try again.

Hood adjustment is difficult

Check for any debris caught in the drawcord or toggles. Ensure the drawcord is threaded correctly through the channels.

Seams appear to be leaking

Inspect the seams for any damage. If damage is found, professional repair may be needed. If the jacket is within its warranty period, contact customer service.
