FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
Yes, it features HELLY TECH® protection, which is designed to be fully waterproof, windproof, and breathable.
Does it have a hood?
The product description focuses on the 2-layer body construction and cuffs; please check the specific inner collar for hidden hood storage as per the specific model year configuration.
Can I wear this in the winter?
The jacket provides excellent wind and rain protection, but it is not insulated for extreme cold. It works best in winter when layered with a warm fleece or down vest.
How should I wash it?
Machine wash cold with technical detergent. Do not use fabric softener, as this can degrade the waterproof membrane.
What is bluesign® approval?
It means the jacket was produced using methods that reduce environmental impact and ensure high levels of safety for consumers and workers.
Troubleshooting
Water is soaking into the outer fabric rather than beading.
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has likely worn off. Wash the jacket and reapply a DWR spray treatment to restore performance.
Zipper is sticking.
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove dust or grit, then lightly lubricate with a wax-based zipper lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the longevity of your Helly Hansen City Coach Jacket, proper care is essential:
- Cleaning: Machine wash in cold water using a technical gear detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners as they can strip the DWR coating.
- Drying: Hang dry the garment. If the water-repellency fades, a short cycle in a low-heat dryer or a light iron (following care label instructions) can often reactivate the DWR treatment.
- Layering: The classic fit is designed to accommodate a light sweater or long-sleeve base layer underneath, making it a versatile piece for varying conditions.
- Storage: Always store in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent mildew buildup on the waterproof membrane.
