Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Odin Infinity Minimalist Jacket is an ultra-light, 3.5-layer shell engineered for high-output mountaineering and backcountry adventures where weight and weather protection are critical. Designed with professional input, it utilizes the innovative LIFA INFINITY membrane to offer superior waterproof and windproof protection without sacrificing breathability. While it provides exceptional performance in harsh environments, its minimalist design means it lacks some of the heavy-duty features found on expedition-specific parkas, making it best suited for fast-and-light alpine pursuits.

FAQs
Is this jacket insulated?

What does the RECCO reflector do?
The RECCO reflector is a passive transponder that helps organized rescue teams locate you in the event of an avalanche or search operation.
Can I wear this for skiing?
Yes, the waterproof and windproof properties, combined with the helmet-compatible hood, make it suitable for backcountry and resort skiing.
How do I pack the jacket?

How should I clean it?

Troubleshooting
Water stops beading on the surface
The DWR coating has likely worn off; wash the garment and apply a technical DWR spray, then tumble dry on low heat if the care label allows.
Feeling damp inside during heavy exertion
While the membrane is breathable, ensure you are not overdressed; adjust your mid-layer system to match your activity intensity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best performance from your jacket, ensure the helmet-compatible hood is cinched appropriately before starting your ascent. Because this is a high-performance technical shell, it is compatible with standard layering systems; wear a moisture-wicking base layer and a thermal mid-layer underneath to adjust for temperature. For care, wash the jacket in cold water using a technical detergent formulated for waterproof shells. Always air dry to protect the membrane's integrity, and consider re-applying a durable water repellent (DWR) treatment periodically to maintain the jacket's ability to bead off water.
