FAQs
What type of insulation does this parka use?

Is the hood detachable?
The faux fur trim on the hood is detachable, allowing you to change the look or remove it if preferred. The hood itself is adjustable.
What does 'HELLY TECH Performance' mean?
HELLY TECH Performance is Helly Hansen's proprietary fabric technology that provides highly waterproof and extra breathable protection for demanding outdoor activities in challenging weather.
Can I wear this in heavy rain?
Yes, the HELLY TECH Performance fabric is highly waterproof and fully seam-sealed, making it suitable for heavy rain.
How should I clean the parka?
Machine wash warm (40°C) with a mild liquid detergent, rinse thoroughly, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid fabric softener and bleach. Do not iron.
What is the fit of the parka?
The parka has a 'Regular' fit, which is neither slim nor oversized, allowing for comfortable layering over mid-weight clothing.
Are there reflective elements on the jacket?
Yes, there are fold-up reflective elements on the sleeves for increased visibility in low-light conditions.
Troubleshooting
Water not beading on the fabric surface.
The DWR treatment may need to be reapplied. Follow product instructions for DWR application after washing and drying the parka.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. You can use a graphite pencil or a wax-based lubricant on the zipper teeth to improve its movement. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Parka feels less warm than expected.
Ensure all zippers and closures are fully sealed. Check that the inner rib cuffs are snug against your wrists. Consider adding a thicker mid-layer beneath the parka for colder temperatures, as the fit allows for layering.
Faux fur trim is matted.
Gently brush the faux fur with a soft brush or comb after it has dried. Avoid direct heat.
