Full details

FAQs
What is HELLY TECH® Protection?
HELLY TECH® Protection is Helly Hansen's proprietary technology that creates a waterproof, windproof, and breathable barrier. It keeps you dry from the outside and comfortable from the inside.
How do I know if the fitted design will work for me?
The coat has a fitted silhouette. Consider your typical layering habits. If you prefer wearing very thick sweaters or need ample room for movement, you might consider sizing up. Referencing the CB Inseam (89 cm) can help gauge the coat's length.
Is the hood detachable?
The hood is adjustable and can be stored within the collar. It is not designed to be fully detached.
What does 'PFC-free' mean?
PFC-free indicates that the garment's water-repellent treatment does not use perfluorinated chemicals, which are considered harmful to the environment. This aligns with a more sustainable approach to manufacturing.
Can this coat be worn in very cold weather?
The Welsey II Trench Coat provides windproof and waterproof protection, which is beneficial in cold weather. However, it is lined with polyester and designed for breathability, meaning it does not offer significant insulation on its own. For very cold conditions, layering with warm base and mid-layers is recommended.
What is the weight of the coat?
The coat weighs 0.636 kg, making it relatively lightweight for its protective capabilities.
Are there other color and size options available?
Yes, the Helly Hansen Welsey II Trench Coat is available in various colors and sizes. Please check the product listings for specific availability.
Troubleshooting
Water is penetrating the coat.
Ensure all seams are fully sealed and that the DWR treatment is still effective. Reapply DWR treatment if necessary. Check that the main zipper and snap closures are fully fastened.
Coat feels clammy or too warm.
This can be due to the coat's breathability being overwhelmed by high activity or insufficient ventilation. Ensure the back ventilation is not obstructed and consider wearing lighter layers underneath.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Belt is difficult to tie or adjust.
Ensure the belt is correctly threaded through the waist loops and that the fabric is not twisted. The tie belt is designed for a secure knot; practice tying it to find the best method for your comfort.
