FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

Yes, it features Helly Tech Performance technology, which is fully waterproof, windproof, and breathable.

Does the hood detach?

No, the hood is integrated into the design for better protection against rain, but it is adjustable for a secure fit.

Can I wear this in the winter?

The jacket is a shell. It is excellent as an outer layer, but you should wear appropriate insulating mid-layers underneath for warmth in colder temperatures.

How do I determine my size?

The jacket follows standard sizing. This specific model is an XL. Refer to the brand's size guide for measurements corresponding to your chest and sleeve length.

Is the jacket machine washable?

Yes, it can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with a technical fabric cleaner.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets are designed to be secure with zippers, but they are intended for general storage; always ensure electronic devices are in a secondary waterproof bag if you are in heavy downpours.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak through the fabric surface

The DWR coating may need refreshing. Wash the jacket and tumble dry on low heat to reactivate, or apply a spray-on DWR treatment if the coating has worn off.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to pull

Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and clean any dirt or debris from the zipper track. A light application of silicone-based zipper lubricant can help.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your jacket in optimal condition, avoid using harsh detergents or bleach. It is recommended to wash the garment in cold water on a gentle cycle. For drying, use a low-heat tumble cycle to help reactivate the durable water repellent (DWR) treatment. Store the jacket in a cool, dry place when not in use, and avoid leaving it bundled up while damp for extended periods to prevent mold or odors. For the best fit, utilize the adjustable hem and cuff toggles to layer over sweaters or base layers as temperatures fluctuate.
