FAQs

What is HELLY TECH® Protection?

HELLY TECH® Protection is a technology that makes the fabric waterproof, windproof, and breathable. It's designed to keep you dry from the outside and comfortable from the inside.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The Seven J Jacket is a waterproof shell. While it offers wind protection and can be layered, it does not provide significant insulation on its own. For very cold weather, you will need to wear insulating layers underneath.

How do I wash the jacket?

Machine wash in warm water (40°C) with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softener and bleach. Do not dry clean.

Can I tumble dry the jacket?

Yes, you can tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting. This can also help reactivate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment.

What does PFC-free mean?

PFC-free means that the jacket's water-repellent treatment does not use perfluorinated chemicals, which are often scrutinized for their environmental impact. This indicates a more environmentally conscious manufacturing process.

How do I adjust the hood?

The hood typically has drawcords at the back and/or sides, allowing you to tighten it around your face for a secure fit and better protection from wind and rain.

What is the weight of the jacket?

The jacket weighs approximately 600 grams (CB inseam: 76 cm).

Troubleshooting

Jacket is leaking water through seams

Ensure all seams are properly sealed. If the issue persists, the waterproof coating may be compromised, and reapplication of a DWR treatment or professional repair might be needed.

Reduced water repellency on the outer fabric

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment may have worn off. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and then reapply a DWR spray or wash-in treatment designed for waterproof apparel.

Jacket feels clammy or not breathable

Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the pores of the waterproof-breathable membrane. Check that the inside lining is not saturated with sweat, which can hinder breathability. Washing and re-applying DWR may help.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a toothbrush and mild soap. Apply a wax-based lubricant or a specialized zipper lubricant. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper slider.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing and windproofing for reliable protection.
  • Breathable fabric prevents overheating during activity.
  • Lightweight and packable design.
  • Adjustable features for a customizable fit.
  • Durable construction suitable for various outdoor activities.

Cons

  • Regular fit may not be ideal for all body types.
  • Minimalist design lacks extensive pocketing or advanced features found in technical shells.
  • The hood, while adjustable, might not offer a helmet-compatible fit.
  • Primarily a shell; insulation would be needed for very cold conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Helly Hansen Seven J Jacket requires no initial setup beyond wearing it. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before use.

Compatibility: This jacket is designed for general outdoor use and is compatible with layering. It can be worn over base layers or mid-layers for added warmth. It functions well for activities such as hiking, walking, cycling, and casual everyday wear.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash in warm water at 40°C. Use a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener or bleach, as these can degrade the DWR treatment and waterproof membrane.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry. Avoid direct heat sources.
  3. Re-waterproofing: To maintain optimal performance, periodically reapply a DWR treatment after washing, following the product's specific instructions. This helps ensure water continues to bead off the fabric.
