FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The Seven J jacket is designed as a waterproof and windproof shell. It is not insulated. For very cold weather, you will need to layer warm clothing underneath. It provides excellent protection against wind and rain, which are key factors in staying warm.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle with a liquid detergent. Close zippers and fasteners. Do not use fabric softener or bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.

What does 'Helly Tech® Protection' mean?

Helly Tech® Protection is Helly Hansen's base level technology for waterproof, windproof, and breathable fabrics. It ensures you stay dry from the outside and comfortable from the inside.

Can I use this jacket for everyday commuting?

Yes, its clean design and weatherproofing make it suitable for everyday use in the city, protecting you from rain and wind during your commute.

How often should I reapply the DWR treatment?

The frequency depends on usage and washing. A good indicator is when water no longer beads up on the fabric surface. Typically, this might be after several washes or extensive use in wet conditions.

Does the hood adjust?

Yes, the hood is adjustable, allowing you to customize the fit for better protection against wind and rain.

What is the anti-chafe chin guard for?

The anti-chafe chin guard is located at the top of the zipper to prevent the zipper slider from irritating your chin or neck.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment on the outer fabric may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and reapply a suitable DWR spray or wash-in treatment according to the product's instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the zipper is clean and free of debris. Gently rub the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or a silicone-based lubricant. Avoid using wax, as it can attract dirt.

Inner lining feels damp or clammy.

This could be due to condensation if the jacket is not breathable enough for the activity level, or if the garment needs washing to remove body oils and dirt that can impede breathability. Ensure proper layering and wash the jacket as per care instructions.

Seam tape is peeling.

This is a more serious issue that may affect waterproofing. Contact Helly Hansen customer support for repair or replacement options under warranty.
