Full details
The Helly Hansen Crew 2.0 Jacket in Red (XS) is a versatile waterproof and breathable jacket designed for women participating in sailing or city activities. Its key benefit is providing reliable protection from wind and rain with HELLY TECH® Protection technology, while the updated lining ensures easy on-and-off.

FAQs
What is HELLY TECH® Protection?
HELLY TECH® Protection is a waterproof, windproof, and breathable fabric technology developed by Helly Hansen. It ensures you stay dry from the outside and comfortable from the inside.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
The Crew 2.0 Jacket is primarily a waterproof and windproof shell. For very cold weather, it is recommended to layer it over insulating garments like fleece or down jackets.
How do I wash the jacket?
Machine wash in warm water (40°C) on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry.
Is the jacket suitable for embroidery?
Yes, the jacket is designed to be embroider-friendly, making it suitable for customization.
What does DWR treatment mean?
DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It is a coating applied to the outer fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off, preventing the fabric from becoming saturated.
How often should I reapply the DWR treatment?
The need to reapply DWR treatment depends on usage and washing frequency. If water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric, it's time to reapply.
What is the fit of the jacket?
The jacket features a regular fit and is hip length. It includes adjustable cuffs and a drawcord at the hem for a customizable fit.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof/water beads off.
The DWR treatment may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a DWR finish according to the product's instructions.
Jacket feels clammy or not breathable.
Ensure all vents are open (if applicable) and that you are not wearing overly insulating layers that are causing excessive perspiration. Check that the jacket is clean, as dirt can clog the membrane.
Zipper is difficult to move.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any snagged fabric. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Seams are leaking.
Inspect the seams for damage. If seams are damaged, professional repair may be necessary. Ensure the jacket has been washed according to care instructions, as residue can affect performance.
