FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
The Victoria Spring Coat is designed primarily for rain protection and moderate temperatures. For colder weather, layering with a warm mid-layer or choosing an insulated version would be recommended.
How do I know if I need to reapply the DWR treatment?
If water no longer beads up and rolls off the surface of the fabric, but instead soaks in or forms a wet sheet, it's time to reapply the DWR treatment.
Can I wear a backpack with this jacket?
Yes, the mechanical stretch fabric allows for movement, making it comfortable to wear a backpack. However, prolonged abrasion from backpack straps might affect the fabric's DWR treatment over time.
What does 'HELLY TECH Performance' mean?
HELLY TECH Performance is Helly Hansen's proprietary technology that provides a waterproof, windproof, and breathable outer layer. It ensures you stay dry from the outside and comfortable from the inside.
Are the reflective elements permanent?
The fold-up reflective elements are integrated into the jacket design. While durable, excessive washing or abrasion can potentially affect their reflectivity over extended periods.
What material is the insulation made from?
The insulation for the hood is made from 100% Polyester, with a portion being Recycled Polyester.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer fully waterproof or water is soaking into the fabric.
The DWR treatment may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a DWR product according to the product's instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Clean the zipper teeth with a brush and apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or paraffin wax) or a silicone lubricant.
Reduced breathability leading to a clammy feel inside.
Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the pores. Check that any vents or openings are not obstructed. Consider a gentle wash with technical fabric detergent.

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water (30°C). Use a mild detergent specifically designed for waterproof and breathable fabrics. Do not use fabric softener or bleach.
- Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly to remove all detergent residue.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry away from direct heat or sunlight. If tumble drying, a tennis ball can help maintain the loft of the insulation.
