FAQs

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

It features HELLY TECH Protection, which is waterproof, windproof, and breathable. While ideal for sailing and marine environments, it is a midlayer construction.

Can I add my team logo to this jacket?

Yes, the jacket includes a secret interior zipper that allows you to access the back for embroidery or printing without compromising the outer shell.

Does it come with a hood?

No, this version of the Crew Midlayer 2.0 does not include a hood.

What is the material composition?

The jacket is primarily constructed from high-quality polyester with a Polartec fleece lining.

How should I wash my Helly Hansen sailing jacket?

Machine wash in warm water, skip the fabric softener, and tumble dry on low heat to preserve the DWR water-repellent coating.

Is the jacket machine washable?

Yes, but always check the specific care tag and ensure all zippers are closed before placing it in the machine.

Troubleshooting

Water appears to be soaking into the outer fabric

The DWR finish may be wearing off; wash the jacket and tumble dry on low heat to reactivate, or apply a secondary spray-on water-repellent treatment.

Zipper feels stiff or hard to pull

Check the tracks for salt spray or grit accumulation; clean with a soft brush and fresh water, then apply a silicone-based zipper lubricant if necessary.

Moisture buildup inside the jacket

Ensure you are not over-layering with non-breathable materials; the jacket works best when paired with synthetic or wool base layers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality Polartec fleece provides superior warmth
  • Highly durable YKK zippers ensure reliable daily operation
  • Professional, clean aesthetic suitable for team branding

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the integrity of the HELLY TECH membrane, ensure you keep the jacket clean by following the manufacturer's care label. Close all YKK zippers and secure the adjustable cuffs before placing the garment in the washing machine. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can clog the breathability of the material. After washing, a low-heat tumble dry or air drying is recommended to reactivate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish. Store the jacket on a hanger using the reinforced external or internal loops to maintain its shape over time.
