This jacket is best for cool to mild weather, offering excellent wind protection and resistance to light rain or snow. It is not designed for heavy downpours or extreme cold on its own.
Machine wash in warm water with a mild detergent, avoiding fabric softener. Tumble dry on low heat. After washing and drying, you can re-apply a DWR treatment according to the product's instructions to restore water repellency.
On its own, it provides limited insulation. However, it is designed to be zip-in compatible with other Helly Hansen layers, allowing you to add insulation for colder conditions.
'Zip-in compatible' means that this jacket has an internal zipper system that allows you to zip in specific insulating mid-layers from Helly Hansen, creating a unified and warmer garment.
No, this jacket is water-resistant due to its membrane and DWR treatment, meaning it can repel water for a period. It is not fully waterproof and is intended for protection against light rain, not prolonged exposure to heavy precipitation.
The main fabric is a softshell composed of 94% Polyester and 6% Elastane, weighing 290 g/m².
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off. Follow the care instructions to wash the jacket and then re-apply a DWR treatment. If the issue persists, the membrane may be compromised.
Utilize the 'Zip-in compatible' feature to layer a suitable insulating jacket or fleece underneath. The jacket is designed as a shell layer for versatility.
Avoid high heat in washing and drying. If minor peeling occurs, avoid excessive rubbing. Significant damage may impair visibility.
Setup: This jacket requires no setup. Simply wear it. Ensure all zippers are closed for optimal protection.
Compatibility: The jacket is designed to be 'Zip-in compatible' with specific Helly Hansen inner layers, allowing for enhanced warmth and versatility. Refer to Helly Hansen's layering system for compatible products.
